The Center for Women in Law launched the Ginsburg Initiative in 2021 to honor the legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Marty Ginsburg. Their partnership was a true commitment to gender equality and serves as an example for us all. The Initiative advances gender-neutral policies that support systemic change in the legal profession, such as best practices around work assignments, performance expectations, parental leave, and transparency in career development.
