Mission Statement

The immediate object of the League is to stop, by appeals to reason and conscience and, if necessary, by appeals to law, the defamation of the Jewish people. Its ultimate purpose is to secure justice and fair treatment to all and to put an end forever to unjust and unfair discrimination against and ridicule of any sect or body of citizens.

Description

The Anti-Defamation League was founded in 1913 "to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all." Now the nation's premier civil rights/human relations agency fighting anti-Semitism and all forms of bigotry, ADL defends democratic ideals and protects civil rights for all.

A leader in the development of materials, programs, and services, ADL builds bridges of communication, understanding, and respect among diverse groups in the United States and around the world, carrying out our mission through a network of Regional and Satellite Offices in the United States, as well as offices abroad.

The Anti-Defamation League is there to stop anti-Semitism in the past, present and future and we have to organize even more now in Trump's administration so another Holocaust is prevented.
