The ACLU of Maryland is dedicated to ensuring that civil liberties are protected as technology advances.

The ACLU of Maryland aims to preserve and extend constitutional and statutory rights to persons who have historically been discriminated against on the basis of race. We have also assumed the additional charge of helping Maryland overcome the stains of a history of legal segregation that manifests itself in structural and institutional racism that still exists. That legacy expresses itself in rural areas like the Eastern Shore as well as in Baltimore City, where historic racism has contributed to a concentration of people with low income within a densely populated urban setting now undergoing economic transition.

With the inauguration of Donald Trump as president of the United States, many people are looking for ways to speak out in support of civil rights and liberties.
