In 2026, the North Carolina Justice Center proudly marks 30 years of advancing justice, equity, and opportunity across our state. We invite you to gather with us for a special anniversary edition of the Defenders of Justice Awards Gala — an evening that honors both our legacy and the leaders who have helped make it possible.
This year, in honor of our 30th anniversary, we will recognize 5 individuals who have devoted their lives to advancing justice in North Carolina.
These honorees exemplify our mission through decades of leadership, advocacy, and courage. They have been on the front lines of the fight to eliminate poverty, strengthen democracy, and build an economy that works for everyone. Their lifelong commitment has driven transformative policy change and expanded opportunity for communities across our state.
Join us as we celebrate three decades of impact, honor today's champions of justice, and recommit ourselves to the work ahead. Become a sponsor today by clicking the ticket link.
