Asian Americans Advancing Justice

Legal Aid & Advocacy · New Jersey · Free

AAJC legal advocacy including for AAPI LGBTQ+ communities. Useful for trans people navigating ID document updates across multiple states and federal agencies. Initial consultations through Lambda Legal, ACLU, and NCLR are typically free and confidential. Bostock v. Clayton County (2020) made workplace LGBTQ+ discrimination illegal under federal Title VII — many people still don't know they're protected. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
