Mission

The ACLU Foundation of San Diego and Imperial Counties fights for individual rights and fundamental freedoms for all through education, community engagement, litigation, and policy advocacy.

About

The ACLU of San Diego & Imperial Counties is a prominent force for the protection and expansion of fundamental rights in California’s second-most populous county (San Diego), its county with the highest percentage of Latino residents (85%) (Imperial), and the state’s southern borderlands. Our mission is “To protect and expand fairness, equity, and freedom through community engagement, building power, policy advocacy, and impact litigation.” Our work is guided by a vision of a just and fair society in which all can participate, prosper, and reach their full potential (from PolicyLink’s definition of “equity” its 2015 Equity Manifesto). From the courtroom to the state legislature to city hall to the court of public opinion, ACLU-SDIC fights for equity on multiple fronts. Based in San Diego with an office in the Imperial Valley, our efforts are sustained by 36 staff, more than 13,000 card-carrying, dues-paying members, thousands of social media followers, and hundreds of volunteers and supporters. We work hard to resolve deeply rooted social inequities that deny the full measure of civil rights and freedoms guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. We are grounded in an “integrated advocacy” approach that allows us to effectively leverage our legal, policy analysis and advocacy, strategic communications and organizing expertise to work with and within the region’s richly diverse communities to create a more just and fair society for us all.
