Mission

Ncac promotes freedom of thought, inquiry and expression and opposes censorship in all its forms.

Programs

2 programs

The youth free expression program (yfep) is dedicated to the education of young people, helping them assert and defend their right to free expression. Any attempt to restrict the creative and intellectual freedom of young people is harmful. The program works with students, teachers, parents, school administrators, and community members to oppose removal of books from school libraries and classrooms, censorship of student-created visual art, efforts to silence student journalists, cancellation of student-led plays and musicals, restrictions on student speech on social media, and efforts to censor health, history, and science curricula.

Expenses: $421K

The arts and culture advocacy program (acap) helps artists and curators involved in censorship disputes. Our goal is to resolve controversies and develop strategic educational initiatives that equip artists and institutions with the necessary tools to promote artistic freedom. Ncac is the only free speech organization with a program dedicated to the rights of artists.

Expenses: $178K
