We Challenge Discrimination

CREEC is a nonprofit membership organization whose goal is to ensure that everyone can fully and independently participate in our nation’s civic life without discrimination based on race, gender, disability, religion, national origin, age, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

About CREEC

As our name suggests, CREEC promotes our mission through education — member input, instructional materials and presentations, outreach, advocacy, humor, collaboration, and animated YouTube videos — and enforcement, that is, investigating and filing impact and class action lawsuits on a broad array of civil rights issues.  Based in Denver and Berkeley, our scope is nationwide. Through our advocacy and litigation, CREEC has successfully transformed the practices of major companies and government entities.

We always hope our educational efforts are effective — and entertaining! — but let’s face it, many civil rights laws have been on the books for decades and some folks still haven’t gotten the point.  We call them “defendants.”   Well, first we call them “subjects of investigation,” then we call them “recipients of demand letters,” then “entities we’re politely discussing the requirements of civil rights laws with,” and THEN — if they still haven’t gotten the point — we call them “defendants.”

We hope you’ll join us and let us know what we should be investigating and who we should be educating.  There’s no cost to join CREEC.

The Latest

The City of Seattle has settled a landmark class action lawsuit by committing to installing over twenty thousand accessible curb ramps throughout Seattle over the next eighteen years. In addition to installing thousands of curb ramps, Seattle also promised to improve the way it responds to people with disabilities who report bad or missing curb ramps. You can make an ADA request by going here. You can also review the full press release and the proposed Consent Decree setting out Seattle’s commitments. Please contact us at 888-461-1919 or curbramps@creeclaw.org if you have a mobility disability and would like to comment on the proposed Consent Decree.

*Though this cute puppy — Holly, our Junior Office Dog — technically has nothing to do with donating to CREEC (though donors at every level are entitled to stop by the office and play with her) we’re hoping she’s so cute that just her overwhelming cuteness will attract attention to the “donate” button and perhaps put people in a donating frame of mind.
