We are activists, educators and experts fighting antisemitism & all forms of hate. We help shape laws & develop model legislation. We work with students to challenge bias & bullying. We never give up trying to build a better world inspired by our sense of unity: There is no them - only us.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is the world's leading organization combating antisemitism, exposing hate groups, training law enforcement on hate crimes, developing anti-bias curricula for students, countering cyber-hate and relentlessly pursuing equal rights for all.
ADL Mountain States Region, serving Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming, was created in 1941 by a dedicated group of community leaders as the first regional office in the US. Over the last 80+ years we work to combat hatred and bigotry by being true to our mission "to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all." .
We do this in the following ways:
• Education programs that empower students to stand up and speak out against antisemitism (Words to Action) and promote and sustain an anti-bias and anti-bullying school community (No Place for Hate ®);
• Combatting antisemitism that affects our cities, communities and campuses- while also exposing antisemitic words and actions;
• Holocaust awareness and education for all;
• Standing up for victims of discrimination and hate crimes, while also advocating for stronger hate crime legislation in our region;
• Advocating for a world that prioritizes equality for all, regardless of religion, gender, race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.
We commit ourselves to never stopping to fight hate for good- we hope you will join us by supporting ADL Mountain States on Colorado Gives Day!
Since our founding in 1913, ADL has worked tirelessly "to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all."
We envision a world in which bias, discrimination and hate do not impact or compromise any group or single individual. Join us.
