Minnesota NOW is a multi-issue, multi-strategy feminist organization actively working to create change in Minnesota. We focus our efforts on six core issues: constitutional equality, economic justice, freedom from violence, LGBT rights, racial justice, and reproductive rights.
Constitutional Equality
Minnesota NOW advocates for amendments guaranteeing gender equality in both the U.S. and Minnesota Constitutions.
Economic Justice
Minnesota NOW fights for economic justice, including a living wage, pay equity, affordable child care, and more.
Freedom from Violence
Minnesota NOW believes that everyone should be able to live their lives free from violence.
LGBTQ Rights
Minnesota NOW is committed to fighting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in all areas, including employment, housing, health services, and child custody.
Racial Justice
Minnesota NOW champions equal opportunities for people of color in all areas, including employment, education, and health care.
Reproductive Rights
Minnesota NOW supports access to safe and legal abortion, effective birth control and emergency contraception, reproductive health services, and comprehensive sex education for all.
