All Topics

Poverty & Income Security

Women of color and women more generally are at greater risk of economic insecurity throughout their lives—so NWLC fights for an economy that works for all of us.

Data on Poverty & Income

Data reveals that Black, Latinx, and Indigenous women are more likely to be pushed into poverty because of racist and sexist policies.

Housing

Housing impacts every aspect of the lives of women, LGBTQ people, and their families—which is why NWLC works across the government and in communities to ensure everyone has fair access to affordable and accessible housing.

Income Supports

From nutrition assistance to Social Security to Unemployment Insurance, income supports help make sure that all women, LGBTQ people, and their families can make ends meet, live with economic dignity, and have the opportunity for a brighter tomorrow. NWLC is working to ensure that these programs and services have robust funding and that women and LGBTQ people can access them.

Social Security & Retirement

Women on average live longer than men–but usually have fewer pension benefits and retirement savings. Women also rely heavily on Social Security retirement benefits, but have lower average benefits than men do. NWLC is fighting to ensure a secure and dignified retirement for women and LGBTQ people.

Taxes

NWLC fights for a tax code that centers and invests in women—particularly women of color and women with low incomes–LGBTQ people, and their families.
