Equal Rights Advocates’ Annual Gala | June 5, 2025 | San Francisco

It’s not just an event. It’s a rallying cry for the rule of law, gender justice, and our communities.

Founded by women lawyers, Equal Rights Advocates has spent more than 50 years defending equal opportunities and building justice and power for women and others in all spheres. We don’t intend to let our progress unravel. We are rising to meet this moment: as feminists, advocates, business leaders, and defenders of the law in the face of unprecedented attacks.

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Join us on June 5, 2025, at Equal Rights Advocates’ 2025 Gala Luncheon for a remarkable event bringing together true champions of justice in this moment. 

  • We will celebrate ERA’s visionary policy and legal work in the states, workplaces,
    and schools supporting our communities. 
  • We will fortify ERA’s work defending your civil and constitutional rights from federal
    threats. 
  • We will honor the resiliency and courage of our clients, movement leaders, and courageous lawyers and jurists defending the rule of law and vulnerable communities. 

Together, we are building power toward a shared vision of a just country, where laws matter, where prosperity is shared, and where communities thrive. We cannot do this without you.
