Gender Public Advocacy Coalition (GenderPAC) works to end discrimination and violence caused by gender stereotypes. Its work ensures that classrooms, communities, and workplaces are safe for every person to learn, grow and succeed, whether or not they fit expectations for masculinity or femininity. As a human rights organization, GenderPAC also promotes an understanding of the connection between gender stereotypes and discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, age, race, and class.

GenderPAC partners with community youth groups to strengthen their work through training, materials and support that helps them work from a human rights foundation. Called "Youth2Youth" (Y2Y), this youth -created and -led training also helps organizations integrate an understanding of gender identity as a human rights issue --and particularly gender-based violence against youth of color -- into their advocacy efforts.

Y2Y is designed to help US youth leaders master the human rights model: concepts, history and techniques. Participants learn about existing human rights covenants, how domestic human rights work connects to the movement for human rights abroad, how to utilize human rights in their own advocacy, and how to frame problems and possible solutions from the broader human rights perspective, and advantages and disadvantages of various approaches.
