ACLU of Delaware Founded in 1961, the ACLU of Delaware is a nonpartisan organization that works to preserve and expand

The ACLU of Delaware, established in 1961, is the state affiliate of the national ACLU. Through education, litigation, and community outreach we work to preserve and strengthen the individual rights and liberties of every person in Delaware. We are a first resort when the government threatens our rights in Delaware and a last hope when we are deprived of our liberties.

The Kandler silent auction is LIVE! 🎉

Every bid means more than what you take home. It’s a bid for hope. A bid for change. A bid for a future where civil rights are protected, not constantly under attack.

Every dollar raised helps fund ACLU-DE’s work to defend our freedoms and hold the line when our rights are threatened. Because what we’re fighting for is bigger than any one auction item. It’s a Delaware where everyone can live with dignity, freedom, and equitable rights under the law.

Browse the auction, find something you love, and make your bid count.

The Kandler silent auction goes LIVE tomorrow! 🎉

Want a week at the Jersey Shore? How about a signed Saquon Barkley Eagles jersey? 👀 These are just two of the items you could take home while supporting something much bigger than the winning bid.

And there’s still time to get involved! Event sponsors make this celebration possible and sustain the work happening year-round. Sponsorships make a real difference, and we’d love to have you in our corner.

Best of all, tickets to the Kandler Celebration are FREE and open to people just like you: advocates, community members, and Delawareans ready to make change happen.

For legal reasons, we’re not endorsing a football team, but also… go Birds. 🦅

Celebrating Hispanic Heritage is an act of resistance and act of joy. Especially in a moment when the history, culture, and identity are being challenged, celebrating means refusing to be erased.

Across our state, Hispanic and Latino workers, entrepreneurs, and business owners are creating jobs, building businesses, strengthening local communities, and driving Delaware’s economy forward.

As we wrap up Hispanic Heritage Month on the 15th, join us in committing to celebrating the people whose heritage, creativity, and contributions make Delaware stronger year-round

💡 What happens when the conditions of probation make it harder to successfully rebuild your life?

⛓️ For people returning to their communities after incarceration, housing instability, transportation barriers, employment challenges, health care needs, and family responsibilities can collide with rigid probation conditions, turning everyday challenges into technical violations that can lead back to prison, even when no new crime has been committed.

Our latest blog looks at how Delaware’s probation system intersects with social determinants of health, and how a more person-first approach could help people successfully rebuild their lives instead of creating more barriers to reentry.

⛓️‍💥 Probation should be a path toward stability, not a trap back into incarceration.

We hear the question “What king?” a lot.

No Kings is a reminder of one of the most foundational ideas of the United States: no one, even the President, is above the constitution or law of the land.

Our democracy hinges on checks and balances, an independent judiciary, Congress as a check on executive power, and a government that follows the laws that govern it. 🗽

When presidential power expands beyond those limits, when court rulings are repeatedly challenged or ignored, Congress is sidelined, and constitutional rights are treated as optional, we have a responsibility to speak up.

On October 17, we’ll be in the streets with communities across the country to defend the principle that in America, power belongs to the people, not to a king.

Join us on October 17. Then join us at the polls. ✊

Indigenous Peoples’ Day is more than a day of recognition. It means confronting the ongoing harm of colonization and respecting Indigenous nations’ sovereignty, knowledge, and right to determine their own futures.

Our office is closed today in observance of Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Indigenous history is not confined to the past. Indigenous peoples are here, sustaining their cultures, protecting their lands, and fighting for their futures.

Justice for Indigenous peoples is justice for all.

National Coming Out Day celebrates the courage it can take to live openly as LGBTQ+ people.

Every person who gets to be themselves without fear helps make a world where others can do the same. But coming out isn't safe or possible for everyone. No one should have to choose between being themselves and feeling safe, and no one owes the world their story.

At ACLU-DE, we're working toward a world where LGBTQ+ people can live openly, love who they love, and be themselves without fear of discrimination or harm.

That work matters every day, not just on October 11.

We see you. We stand with you. And we keep fighting for you. 🏳️‍🌈
