About this organization
Mission
The Civil Liberties Defense Center supports movements that seek to dismantle the political and economic structures at the root of social inequality and environmental destruction. We provide litigation, education, legal and strategic resources to strengthen and embolden their success.
About
The Civil Liberties Defense Center's "Dissent & Democracy" program uses education to proactively challenge attacks on our civil liberties and rights. CLDC's "Know Your Rights (KYR)" training is a regularly occurring educational event, and each workshop is tailored to the needs of the participants. CLDC has substantially increased the diversity of the training provided over the past year, including but not limited to: youth, parent, immigration, landlord-tenant, worker and climate activist rights, from free speech to arrest to trial to sentencing. Under our "Effective Communities" campaign, CLDC pairs with other public interest and activist groups to educate them not only on their Constitutional rights, but also on applicable laws and the right of the entities they are protesting. Armed with knowledge, participants are empowered to make informed choices regarding their interactions with government agents, corporations, counter-protesters and others, thereby better protecting their rights and safety.
