West Coast LEAF’s office is located on the unsurrendered homelands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations (also called Vancouver, BC).

West Coast LEAF is a legal non-profit and charitable organization with a mandate to advocate for inclusive and intersectional gender equality. We use law reform, public legal education, and litigation strategies to achieve systemic transformation, collaborating directly with communities impacted by gendered harms. We are committed to advancing an inclusive vision of feminism that defends the right to be free from discrimination based on gender identity and gender expression. As a predominantly settler-led organization working within colonial legal frameworks, we take responsibility for positively transforming our relationships with the Indigenous people on whose homelands we predominantly work.

This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one, the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap, the being a force of nature instead of a feverish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.

George Bernard Shaw
