National Association To Advance Fat Acceptance

Civil rights advocacy - this fiscal year, naafa co-founded the campaign for size freedom with the Fat legal advocacy, rights and education project (flare), a project of the law office of brandie solovay, and sponsored by dove. The campaign for size freedom promotes grass-roots advocacy for the civil rights of Fat people across the united states through education and awareness, focusing on Fat as intersectional and as a social justice issue. The campaign supports Fat community across the nation in a variety of ways including promotion through social media, educational programming and acting as subject matter experts in the field of Fat rights.
