The NAACP advocates, agitates, and litigates for the civil rights of all America. Our legacy was built on the foundation of grassroots activism laid by the greatest civil rights pioneers of the 20th century and sustained by 21st-century activists. From classrooms and courtrooms to city halls and Congress, our network of members across the country work to secure the social and political power that will end race-based discrimination. That work is rooted in racial equity, civic engagement, and supportive policies and institutions for all marginalized people. We are committed to a world without racism where all people can enjoy equitable opportunities in thriving communities.
The NAACP is only as strong as the community that holds it up. Because the affront to our civil rights are so complex, there are 24 individual standing committees framed by local units, State/Area conferences together with the leadership at the NAACP National Office in Baltimore, MD. These committees are uniquely structured to address the 21st century civil rights agenda. Issues related to criminal justice reform, equal access to education, healthcare, housing, economic development, labor & industry, legal redress, membership, political action, Women in the NAACP (“WIN”) and religious affairs. There is ample room for you to demonstrate your talents and commitment to civil rights by joining any one or more of these committees. Take the next step - Get involved with the work! Together, we can do more than we can do alone.
