Its support programs serve people of color, victims of domestic violence, immigrants, low-income individuals, and others across the queer spectrum who find community and strength there. Before founding BRCSJ, Robt Martin formed a theatre company that raised significant funding for AIDS support and HIV testing, and started the state\u2019s first Gay-Straight Alliance while teaching in middle school, which became the template for many others across the U.S. He was named the Social Justice Activist of the Year by the National Education Association in 2017, giving rise to his vision

Fraidy and her team are working diligently to change the legal age of marriage to 18 and ban child marriage nationwide. It is currently illegal (age of consent 18) in only 16 states plus Washington, D.C., American Samoa, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands; all other states and territories allow marriage of young

The organization works to end online and offline bullying in schools, workplaces and faith communities and to promote safe, inclusive and respectful environments for vulnerable youth and their allies. The couple established The Tyler Clementi Center on the New Brunswick campus of Rutgers University (where Tyler was a freshman student), collaborated with the San Francisco Gay Men\u2019s Chorus to create a choral arrangement called Tyler\u2019s Suite, and launched The Tyler Clementi Internet Safety Conference at the New York Law School. The foundation also has programs and downloadable

The organization steers youth through challenges and prepares them for purpose-driven living with programs that address relationships, setting and achieving goals, joy, disappointments, dealing with gangs, inner-city life, decision making, forgiveness and salvation. Today, Ryan applies that experience as president and CEO of the New Jersey Institute for Social Justice, which seeks to ensure that all New Jersey residents live in a society that respects their humanity, provides equality of economic opportunity, empowers them to use their voice in the political process, and protects equal justice. Its holistic approach advocates for systemic reform that is transformative, achievable statewide, and replicable in communities across the

The Centurion team re-investigates crimes, uncovers lost evidence and finds new evidence, convinces coerced witnesses to tell the truth, helps overturn false confessions, and sometimes finds the true perpetrator.
