To this end, we engage in high-impact litigation, advocacy, and education. The core values of the Women's Law Project are a belief in the right of all women to bodily integrity and personal autonomy; dedication to listening to women and being guided by their experiences; and commitment to fairness, equality and justice. 0 0 1198535 204658 The Women's Law Project (WLP), a Pennsylvania legal advocacy organization founded in 1974, believes that every person has the right to bodily autonomy, health, economic security, and freedom from violence, and that personal decisions about sexuality and procreation must be protected by the government instead of intruded upon. Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion forms the bedrock of WLP's programs and operations. A keystone of WLP's work is our commitment to work collaboratively with other organizations, both to ensure that all perspectives are brought to bear on solutions and to streamline advocacy efforts, thus rendering them more effective and meaningful.The WLP has been at the forefront on numerous legal and policy initiatives involving reproductive health care, here in Pennsylvania and nationwide, for over four decades. We challenge laws designed to limit or deny access to abortion, including twice before the United States Supreme Court, and represent abortion care providers in numerous state regulatory matters that arise from the burdensome and unnecessary state regulations designed to limit access to abortion. We provide representation in cases in which pregnant women have been subjected to criminal and other punitive measures related to their pregnancy. Most recently, we have expanded our legal portfolio to provide direct representation to pregnant women who experience discrimination in employment and education, and to minors who are seeking judicial bypasses to have an abortion.WLP has a substantial portfolio of worker justice advocacy. We provide direct legal representation on employment-based sexual harassment and on employment-based pregnancy discrimination, almost exclusively on behalf of low-income workers. We author amicus curiae (friend of the court) briefs on a range of worker's justice issues. We provide technical assistance to policy makers on legislation and have assisted in drafting numerous bills related to sexual harassment, pregnancy discrimination, pay equity, paid sick days, etc. We provide expert testimony at relevant legislative hearings.WLP engages in numerous initiatives to improve systemic response to domestic and sexual violence, with local and national impact. WLP brings litigation relating to violence against women and authors amicus curiae briefs highlighting the needs of victims, and has authored manuals, judicial desk books, and numerous publications on violence against women. WLP led a reform effort that led to complete reorganization of the Philadelphia Police Department's response to sex crimes, including an unprecedented case review by advocates, which is now a national model. WLP co-chairs the Domestic Violence Law Enforcement Committee (DVLEC), which brings together the Philadelphia Police Department, Office of the District Attorney, with domestic violence, sexual assault, immigrant, and senior citizen service providers, and batterers' intervention programs for the specific purpose of coordinating activities to improve victim safety and perpetrator accountability.We provide the legal context for community-based organizations through our extensive social media platform, in-person meetings, developing and sharing talking points on relevant initiatives, participating in conferences, and providing messaging assistance to our allies. 1198535 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 10 0 14 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 22 22 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 PA NJ X The Organization 2159289801 125 S 9th Street No 300 Philadelphia PA 19107 Nancy Reese Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Karen LoDico Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Catherine Barbieri Esq Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Valentine Brown Esq Trustee 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Leonore Carpenter Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 David Cohen Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Danielle Coverdale CPA Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy D Ginter Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Susanne M Gollin PhD Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Pamela Goodwin Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ariel Greenstein Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Amanda Green Hawkins Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kelley B Hodge Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Benjamin Jerner Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jan Levine Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Joann Mitchell Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Deborah Moretti Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Eleanor Myers Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Perriera Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ariana Omelas Smyth Esq Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Carol E Tracy Esq Executive Director 40.00 X 123507 0 0 Terry Fromson Managing Attorney 40.00 X 117950 0 0 241457 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 256373 852034 1108407 Attorney fees 541100 204658 204658 204658 269 269 49462 256373 49462 0 1313334 204658 0 269 128206 87328 20439 20439 796899 692861 47996 56042 18210 15358 1347 1505 97425 82164 7207 8054 69321 58462 5128 5731 20522 20522 36000 36000 30000 30000 17393 14175 1531 1687 137681 112210 12116 13355 20224 16482 1780 1962 7965 6491 701 773 6504 5301 572 631 Litigation expense 34718 34718 Telephone 17654 14388 1554 1712 Books and subscriptions 15823 15823 Equipment rental & main 7360 5998 648 714 7204 6776 204 224 1469109 1198535 121745 148829 154098 562188 96699 89313 313357 33542 18464 23257 108981 92814 14384 16167 597002 724467 133216 155556 63000 197900 133216 416456 X 66988 203394 396798 104617 463786 308011 597002 724467 -155775 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 767442 839808 1755199 1145704 1108407 5616560 767442 839808 1755199 1145704 1108407 5616560 1157003 4459557 191 339 207 308 269 1314 5617874 209729 0.79380 0.68070 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 84 1317 1401 1467708 1469109 221911 55478 0 0 216540 211190 225817 221911 875458 1313187 1313 2728 2073 1401 7515 54135 52798 56454 55478 218865 328298 550 342 162 84 1138 3783 2271 1512 105198 90543 14655 16167 X 2031891 718557 718557 1313334 0 1313334 2187666 718557 718557 1469109 0 1469109 Part X, Line 2: WLP follows the accounting guidance for uncertain tax positions.
