Program 1 [2020]
To enhance the fairness, efficiency, and predictability of the tort system through public education and legislative enactments. ATRA accomplishes its legislative agenda by working with state tort reform coalitions. It is a clearing-house for information from approximately 40 state tort reform coalitions. Each fall, ATRA hosts a planning conference at which coalition leaders meet to discuss past successes and future strategies. ATRA also prepares educational materials which carry its message directly to the public. ATRA has developed a communications "tool-kit" for use by local grassroots coalitions interested in fighting lawsuit abuse.

ATRA's weekly "Legislative Watch," available online, via fax and e-mail, keeps members abreast of tort reform at the state and federal level. ATRA's "Reformer" newsletter is a quarterly update of ATRA activities and civil justice issues.
