Women’s Educational Media (WEM), a San Francisco, California-based 501©(3) nonprofit, is a highly acclaimed progressive social issue documentary film production company and a leader in the field of anti-bias, diversity education. WEM’s primary, current focus is its Respect For All Project, a successful organizing campaign to address issues of prejudice among young people and the adults who guide their development. Through the distribution of award-winning films, accompanying curricula, and professional development workshops aimed at educators, youth service providers and parents/guardians, the RFAP strives to create safe schools and communities by opening up dialogue about diversity and discrimination. The RFAP has been a national pioneer advocating for the inclusion of age-appropriate curricula that addresses anti-gay bias. WEM has also been highly successful in forging collaborations with local, regional and national organizations to work on campaigns related to the issues its films address.
