ACLU of Ohio

ACLU of Ohio Foundation

Our Mission: To champion and expand constitutional and other fundamental rights and to pursue racial, economic, gender, and social equity for all Ohioans using all the tools of integrated advocacy without political partisanship; to fi ght in both principle and practice for the best ideals of fairness, freedom, and justice; and to advance our mission through an anti-racist, intersectional lens with determination, agility, practicality, and hope.

What’s New:

The ACLU of Ohio envisions a just and equitable Ohio where all people are fairly represented in a strong democracy, unoppressed by racism, and able to live their fullest lives. Each day we are chipping away at injustices for Ohioans by fi ghting for: • Fair electoral maps, an ongoing e ort to end gerrymandering. • An end to wealth-based detention and abolition of the death penalty. • Historical accuracy about America’s racist legacy and its impact today, the rights of LGBTQ+ children and family members to be valued in public schools as their authentic selves. • The right to personal and bodily autonomy, including abortion care and access to birth control.
