DISCRIMINATORY PRACTICES AGAINST WOMEN 

One area of great activity for many women's groups is in promoting change against a number of legal and social practices that discriminate against women. Many groups need people to get signatures on petitions and for lobbying legislatures. There are also specialized agencies that can be useful for specific instances of discrimination.
