Please join us in Baltimore on Friday night, June 27 for NELA’s 40th Anniversary Gala.
We will celebrate 40 years of impact and advocacy, build our national community, and strengthen our ability to fight for workers—now and in the decades ahead.
Since 1985, NELA has been a bulwark against powerful, influential, and well-resourced employers who strip workers of their right to a safe and just workplace. We have changed the landscape of employment law, protecting and expanding the rights of all workers and championing justice regardless of the political environment.
Now, as attacks on workers’ rights intensify to an unprecedented scale,
NELA is more vital than ever, and we are fighting back.
Whether or not you can join us in person, your sponsorship of NELA’s 40th Anniversary Gala is an investment in NELA’s critical work at a time when we cannot afford to be on the defensive.
As part of a national movement for workplace justice, NELA is expanding efforts to empower workers’ rights advocates by providing trainings, tools, and resources to attorneys representing federal employees, LGBTQ+ workers, immigrant workers, and others targeted by harmful and illegal actions; filling the enforcement gap left by anti-worker policies including by strengthening advocacy for workers experiencing wage and hour violations and harnessing our Amicus Program to influence critical employment and civil rights cases; and defending diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in the workplace and reinforcing our own commitment to these principles.
