About the ACLU of New Jersey
For over 60 years, the ACLU of New Jersey has defended liberty and justice, guided by the vision of a fair and equitable New Jersey for all. Our mission is to preserve, advance, and extend the individual rights and liberties guaranteed to every New Jerseyan by the state and federal constitutions in courts, in the legislature, and in our communities.
Founded in 1960 and based in Newark, we are a non-partisan organization that operates on several fronts—political, legal, and cultural—to bring about systemic change and build a more equitable society. In every facet of our work, we strive to be anti-racist and are actively committed to advancing racial justice in the institutions of New Jersey. We aim to center the voices and lived experiences of those who historically have not been fully protected by government systems or laws.
