The Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP) is a liberal organization, based in Washington, D.C., that engages in anti-poverty advocacy.[1][2][3]

Overview

The National Women's Law Center was established in 1972 as a project of CLASP.[4]  

Alan W. Houseman joined CLASP as executive director in 1981 and began shifting its focus from general public-interest law to anti-poverty policy, particularly child and family poverty.[5]

After Houseman's retirement as executive director in 2013, Olivia Golden was chosen to lead the organization.[6] She did so until 2022[7] when Indivar "Indi" Dutta-Gupta joined the organization as its executive director.[8]

The organization is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization funded by a number of foundations, including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Atlantic Philanthropies, and various individual donors. In 2021, it reported an income of $12 million. [9] In 2022, CLASP received a $10 million gift from MacKenzie Scott, the ex-wife of Jeff Bezos.[10]
