ACLU: American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio
Keeping America Safe and Free

Defend Freedom!

Statue of Liberty   In August, 2008,
the ACLU of Ohio
held a grassroots activist training in Zanesville.

We received such great feedback on the materials that we wanted to make them available to all our activists across the state.

Get Informed! Check out our events calendar for upcoming programs near you.
 
Spread the word. Plan a community program or request a speaker to talk to your group.
 
Share your success. Since our training in August, participants have taken action. Here’s a sampling:
  -- One activist had a letter to the editor printed in her local paper.
  --  Another activist contacted his city council members and mayor
      regarding his city’s hindrance of political speech.
