Title
Rhode Island Affiliate, American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
Description
This is the website of the Rhode Island Affiliate, ACLU and the ACLU Foundation of Rhode Island. Learn more about the distinction between these two components of the RI ACLU.
Who We Are
The American Civil Liberties Union is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to upholding and protecting the rights and freedoms guaranteed by the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Founded in the 1920s by a small group of devoted civil libertarians, today the ACLU is comprised of nearly 400,000 members and more than fifty affiliates and chapters nationwide.
What We Do
The RI ACLU performs its work in three major ways: litigation, legislation and education. The cases that we take, the bills we lobby on and the public education activities that we sponsor, are designed to help preserve and protect the civil liberties of all Rhode Islanders against government infringement. As a general rule, the issues with which the RI ACLU gets involved break down into the following categories:
