The Lawfare Project is committed to protecting the rights of Jewish students and families in K–12 education. Every child deserves to learn in an environment that is free from hostility, antisemitism, and political indoctrination.
Too often, schools allow biased or inaccurate materials into classrooms, dismiss parents’ concerns, or create an atmosphere where Jewish students are marginalized. Families should not be left alone to confront these challenges.
Through the K–12 Civil Rights Project, The Lawfare Project provides support, resources, and legal guidance to parents and students. We work to secure transparency in curricula, hold schools accountable when they fail their duty of care, and, when necessary, take legal action to defend the civil rights of Jewish children in America’s classrooms. We provide assistance in a number of ways:Advising families on how to communicate with teachers and administrators.
Bringing discrimination, indoctrination, or antisemitic conduct to the attention of school officials.
Helping parents obtain curricula, reading lists, and instructional materials.
Partnering with the media and advocates to shed light on problems in schools.
Taking legal action when facts and circumstances warrant intervention.
If any of the following has occurred, we encourage you to complete the form below. Please note that any information you provide to The Lawfare Project will remain strictly confidential, and may only be shared with trusted attorneys in The Lawfare Project’s network for purposes of legal evaluation. Additionally, submitting the form does not obligate you to take any further action (including speaking with The Lawfare Project).
Your child has witnessed or experienced antisemitic harassment or discrimination.
You believe school materials or curricula contain indoctrination, bias, or antisemitism.
Your child has been excluded, marginalized, or treated differently because of their Jewish identity.
School administrators have refused or failed to provide access to curricula or instructional materials.
In the event that we may be able to assist you, we will respond to your request as swiftly as possible. However, it is important to know that all legal claims have deadlines. For some civil rights violations, you may be required to file a notice or pursue options with a government agency before you can file a lawsuit in court. If you do not comply with time deadlines or notice requirements, you could be legally prevented from pursuing your claim in court. Contacting LP for legal assistance does not stop these deadlines or eliminate the need to file notices. If you contact LP and have an urgent need or must meet a deadline, do not hesitate to also contact a private attorney, your local public defender, or your state’s bar association. DO NOT WAIT for a response from LP.
Nothing on this website should be considered legal advice. Contacting LP for legal assistance, including the submission of this form, does not create an attorney-client relationship. Any potential future engagement of LP to provide legal assistance will be governed by a separate written agreement, signed by all parties involved.
End Hate in Education
The Lawfare Project’s End Hate in Education initiative is a national campaign to confront antisemitism and indoctrination in schools. By mobilizing parents, communities, and allies, we push for transparency, enforce civil rights, and demand safe, accurate, and inclusive education for all children.
School Noncompliance
Parents have the right to know what their children are being taught. If you have asked your school for access to curriculum, lesson plans, or reading lists and have been denied, ignored, or given incomplete information, please complete the form below.
Your submission will help our attorneys understand how schools are responding to transparency requests and evaluate what action may be needed.
Every student deserves a classroom where they feel safe, respected, and valued. Jew-hatred has no place in American schools. By working together—parents, students, educators, and advocates—we can hold schools accountable and ensure transparency in education.
