Alliance Defending Freedom is a leading legal organization devoted to preserving religious freedoms, the sanctity of life, free speech, family values, parental rights and traditional marriage.
Religious Freedom
Established in 1994 by Christian community leaders, the institution is inclined to believe that the right to religion is inalienable and should extend to everyone, despite their faith, to allow individuals from different backgrounds to explore questions about life and practice their convictions publicly without fear or favor.
Freedom of Speech
It is imperative to ensure that free speech in institutions of knowledge such as colleges and universities continues to be upheld; ADF, through their Center for Academic Freedom, furthers this agenda by creating an enabling environment that facilitates the free flow of ideas and meaningful debates from students from of all walks of life such as Michelle Gregoire.
The Sanctity of Human Life
The fundamental area of focus brings out the contention that laws and the courts should work hand in hand in protecting the rights of women and children from conception to death. To put this into perspective, the company intervened in Jesse Ramirez’s case, thus preventing his feeding tube from being turned off and allowing him to walk out of the rehabilitation center in about five months.
Parental Rights
Alliance Defending Freedom is steadfast in preserving parental rights and responsibilities by filing lawsuits against school management who enacts discriminatory policies. They support parents’ authority to make critical decisions concerning their children’s health, upbringing and welfare.
International Work
On a global scale, collaborations are made with partners worldwide to defend Christians and religious minorities from being prosecuted while advocating for freedom of speech and religion.
Advocacy at the Supreme Court
ADF is a respected advocate in the United States Supreme Court for accumulating 72 victories while representing diverse groups such as pastors, religious organizations, schools, and town councils.
