Center for Intimacy Justice (CIJ) is a feminist social change organization committed to equality and wellbeing in people’s love and sexual lives.

CIJ is currently working to change discriminatory algorithms and policies that suppress access to information about health for women and people with vulvas. In 2022, CIJ’s research on Meta - published in The New York Times and 80 media outlets, cited by a US Senate HELP Committee, and tweeted about by a former Secretary of State - was followed by Meta revising its written policies toward sexual and reproductive health and wellness. We are still working toward changes in the technological practices to allow these ads.

This year, CIJ has expanded our team to 8 women (1 full-time, 7 part-time) and is working to:

• File a Federal Trade Commission complaint calling on government action to enforce change at Meta (global change even though with a US agency)

• Lead research on 4+ tech platforms that suppress women’s health 

• Educate policymakers in Europe and the US (with potential for policy/algorithmic changes with global impact), and tech companies, on the research findings

• Communicate directly with tech platforms, and lead global convening conversations (speaking on 5 continents from 2022-2023), to effect change
