For over 50 years, NCAC has stood as a watchdog against censorship.
Our legal advocacy work stands at the frontlines of the battle for freedom of speech. Whether it’s fighting book bans, challenging unconstitutional policies, or supporting artists, students, and educators whose voices are being silenced — we don’t just talk about rights. We fight for them.
Censorship doesn’t just affect celebrities and politicians. It affects everyone; it affects you. That’s why NCAC’s legal team fights on behalf of everyday people whose words, ideas, or creations are unfairly silenced. We empower individuals, support communities, and make justice louder than silence.
From filing amicus briefs in high-profile cases to providing insights into complex laws, we work to ensure that censorship is never left unchallenged.
The fight against censorship requires more than outrage — it requires strategy. NCAC’s legal advocacy focuses on ensuring that the First Amendment evolves with the times — never against them.
