Human Rights First is a non-partisan advocacy organization that champions the freedom and dignity of all people. We build bridges and coalitions to ensure that justice and democracy prevail. We defend the rule of law while we innovate.

What differentiates us from other human rights organizations is our determination to bring people together to support basic rights and freedoms. We protect people and preserve democracy by building bridges, innovating toward common-sense solutions, and defending the rule of law.

Human Rights First is committed to equal employment opportunity and recruiting talent from across all diverse groups. We do not discriminate against any person because of the individual’s race, color, creed, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, affection preference, gender identity, marital status, national origin, citizenship status, disability, status as a war veteran, status as a victim of domestic violence, or on any other basis prohibited by law.

We believe a diverse staff and an inclusive work environment that welcomes a range of perspectives make us a stronger and more effective organization. Learn more about our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.

Research suggests that women and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) individuals may self-select out of opportunities if they do not meet 100 percent of the job requirements. We encourage individuals who believe they have the skills necessary to thrive on our team to apply for those open positions at Human Rights First.
