HEART staff member Sahar Pirzada collaborated on this policy brief published by the Women’s Policy Institute. Highlighting the issue of religious headwear in LA County, this brief asks LA County to allow women to don religious headwear if they choose, thereby aligning with basic First Amendment rights. At HEART, we recognize the intersectionality of issues including Islamophobia, sexual violence, and gender inequality. Injustices must be addressed across the board for real social change to occur.
