Abstract

Columbia Law School’s Center for Gender & Sexuality Law offers this report to aid the de Blasio administration in evaluating the steps it can and should take to eliminate all forms of gender and sexual discrimination, and to assure gender and sexual justice in City policy and programs. After consultation with numerous groups advocating for gender and sexual justice across New York City, the Center for Gender & Sexuality Law at Columbia Law School has synthesized in this report a set of key recommendations to the de Blasio administration, all designed to eliminate a wide range of disadvantages, invisibility, violence, marginalization, and discrimination that residents of New York su!er on account of gender and/or sexuality.

The recommendations contained in this Briefing book are organized into the following subject areas: Criminal Justice, Domestic Partnership, Education, Elders, Housing, Immigration, Labor, People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA), Sexual and Intimate-Partner Violence, and Social Services.
