The AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund (LAF) assists individuals challenging sex discrimination in higher education. LAF is the nation’s largest legal fund focused on this issue.

Each year the AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund’s “Progress in Equity Award” recognizes a college or university program that has resulted in significant progress for women on campus. Recipients receive a stipend of up to $10,000 and public recognition throughout their communities, campus, and AAUW. Please note that the application deadline is March 15th.  For further information, see the LAF Advocacy page on the AAUW website.
