WomensLaw at a Glance – 2024 National Updates

NNEDV

March 2025
 

WomensLaw.org offers plain-language legal information for 55 states and territories, federal legal information, and non-legal information related to domestic violence. To provide the most updated information to survivors, their loved ones, and the professionals who help them, the WomensLaw team reviewed amendments to 451 statutes and added 475 new statutes in 2024. Based largely upon these new and amended statutes, we created 393 new questions and responses and revised an additional 798 existing questions and responses on WomensLaw.org. We also translated more than 1,489 pieces of content into Spanish and 10 into Korean. In our Places that Help section, we added 258 new state-specific and national resources and updated 844 existing ones.

Here are the four most exciting additions to WomensLaw.org that are not specific to any state. Please visit our What’s New page to learn about all of our legal and non-legal updates and additions in 2024.
