WASHINGTON _ The legal arm of Time's Up, the anti-sexual harassment initiative started by a group of powerful women in Hollywood, will award grants of up to $50,000 aimed at helping women in lower-wage jobs protect themselves from sexual misconduct.
The Time's Up Legal Defense Fund will award the grants to nonprofit organizations serving low-income working women, including those who have experienced sexual misconduct at work.
That could include groups working with service industry employees, including hotel and restaurant workers, nurses and farm and factory workers.
