Massachusetts Appleseed Announces 2026 Priorities

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

March 26, 2026

Boston, MA – Building on the progress and impact highlighted in the 2025 Impact Report, Massachusetts Appleseed Center for Law & Justice, a statewide social justice research and advocacy nonprofit, published its priorities for 2026 last week, outlining the organization’s continued commitment to advancing justice and equity across the Commonwealth. Every day, people across Massachusetts are denied their rights and face barriers to accessing the government and legal systems meant to support them. As we move through 2026, our sense of urgency to address these inequities has never been greater.

Massachusetts Appleseed will continue to advance systemic change through research, policy advocacy, coalition building, and community education. Over the coming year, the organization will collaborate with more than 50 partner organizations across the state, expand its Know Your Rights trainings, grow its online community, and work with local media to spotlight ongoing inequities.

By publishing its 2026 priorities, Massachusetts Appleseed reaffirms its mission to dismantle barriers that perpetuate injustice and to ensure that all residents of Massachusetts have equal access to opportunity, services, and legal protections.
