Who We Are
The Sacramento Area Chapter of the ACLU is a group of community activists dedicated to preserving civil liberties and advancing social justice. eOur work can be divided into three functions: community education and visibility, local monitoring and advocacy, and participation in state and federal campaigns. Educating the community is our top priority – we believe the best way to protect our rights is to know them. We speak at schools, host community forums, and lead know-your-rights workshops. We also attend City Council and Board of Supervisors meetings to ensure our elected officials make decisions that respect the needs of Sacramento's diverse communities. Finally, we support the active program of the ACLU of Northern California and organize community members around important state and federal campaigns for justice.
Our Chapter is comprised of elected board members plus a number of dedicated volunteers. The Sacramento Chapter is part of the ACLU of Northern California, which is one of three ACLU affiliates in California, and part of the National ACLU. The Sacramento Chapter was founded in 2007 and our 2021 chapter board will meet the last Tuesday of the month at 5:30 pm and plan chapter-wide events throughout the year. Again, our next chapter-wide event is:
