Genital Autonomy Legal Defense and Education Fund (GALDEF) is a new non-profit, membership-based genital autonomy legal group, founded by pioneering activist Tim Hammond, along with John Adkison and other spirited human rights advocates.

GALDEF raises funds for "impact litigation" to establish legal precedents for recognition of children's rights to bodily integrity and genital autonomy regardless of gender, but especially for those not already protected by law (e.g. those assigned male at birth or intersex).

GALDEF will also train attorneys on the complexities involved in winning such cases and with the hope of building a coalition of attorneys who are prepared to bring viable cases to U.S. courts of law.

GALDEF seeks individuals for the Board of Directors, Board of Advisors, the Grant Review Committee, and other positions (media/social media, fundraising, graphics/website design, etc). GALDEF will emphasize being an inclusive and welcoming organization to ensure diversity with regard to sex/gender, race, religion and sexual orientation/gender identity within its board, officers and membership.

Please read more about GALDEF and consider offering your time, skills, talents and passion to create this new and vitally needed organization.
