ACLU of South Dakota

Legal Aid & Advocacy · South Dakota · Free

State affiliate defending LGBTQ+ civil rights. Worth contacting after workplace, housing, or healthcare discrimination — most cases have a tight statute of limitations. 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. All services free of charge to LGBTQ+ South Dakota residents and allies.
