Corporación Comunidad y Justicia

What Corporación Comunidad y Justicia does

Corporación Comunidad y Justicia is a Chilean non-profit legal corporation (corporación sin fines de lucro, RUT 65.056.487-1) founded in 2012 and headquartered at Alcántara 271, oficina 601, Las Condes, Santiago. The organization defends and promotes human rights and the rule of law in Chile through public interest litigation, free legal advisory services for individuals whose rights have been violated, and legislative advocacy. Its work is structured around four focus areas: the right to life, the family (founded on marriage between a man and a woman), parental rights, and religious freedom, with service delivery grounded in a natural law and Catholic social doctrine framework that differentiates it from generalist human rights organizations.

The corporation's service portfolio includes Asesoría Legal (legal advisory, potentially before national and international courts), Litigación de Interés Público (public interest litigation), a Portal de Atención para Padres on sexual education and gender identity in schools, a three-week Programa de Pasantías for university students, formation courses on Catholic political foundations (e.g., 'Fundamentos cristianos de la política'), and the weekly Revista Suroeste newsletter/publication. Major research outputs include the 2024 report 'La cuestión trans: análisis integral y crítico de la disforia de género y sus tratamientos.' The organization is governed by a six-member board of directors (Directorio) and an executive team led by Director Ejecutivo Álvaro Ferrer Del Valle, with specialized legal staff across judicial, legislative, and research areas.

Comunidad y Justicia is funded entirely through donations from individuals and organizations, processed via the yodono.cl online platform and direct bank transfers to Banco BICE, and provides all legal services free of charge. Case intake is handled through a Google Forms-based process on its website. Distribution channels include active social media presence (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn), a weekly email newsletter (Boletín), WhatsApp diffusion groups, opinion columns in El Líbero, and a weekly radio program 'La Otra Cara de Maipú' on Radio Viva 106.7 FM reaching approximately 500,000 listeners in Maipú. The organization has demonstrated regulatory influence through successful opposition to Decree N° 22 (2024) on conscience objection and to the religious registration of 'Templo de Satán.'
