Publications
The Foundation offers nearly 30 publications to educators and the public. Some of those publications are available in print and some are only available for download (in PDF format). In addition, some publications are available in alternate formats, including Spanish, Braille and audio. To listen to or download select audio publications from our website, click here.
Plus, the Foundation also produces two subscription-based publications—The Legal Eagle, a legal newspaper for kids (for grades 5 and up) and Respect, our diversity and inclusion newsletter (for grades 6 and up). Both of these publications are published three times a year.
We invite you to subscribe to The Legal Eagle and Respect, as well as order free print copies of available publications.
