Hi, my name is Maggie DeJong, and as a former client of Alliance Defending Freedom, I wanted to personally thank you for your support and prayers. When I was in graduate school, my university tried to silence and punish me for sharing my beliefs. I knew this was wrong. And I didn’t want what happened to me to happen to anyone else. So, I reached out to ADF, and because of your generosity, they were able to defend me. And I won. Now, the university has revised its policies to provide more protections for students. And officials in my program have undergone ADF-provided First Amendment training ...

Isabel Vaughan-Spruce was arrested for silently praying. She wasn’t carrying a sign or engaging with anyone. She wasn’t even praying out loud. She was simply standing near an abortion clinic in the United Kingdom – peacefully praying in her mind. The introduction of “censorship zones” by Birmingham authorities criminalizes individuals perceived to be “engaging in any act of approval or disapproval” in relation to abortion, including through “verbal or written means, prayer or counseling…”. Isabel’s physical presence in the censorship zone wasn’t a crime in itself, it was the contents of her ...

Free speech is under threat in America. Lydia Booth, a brave Mississippi 3rd grader was silenced by her school for wearing her “Jesus Loves Me” mask. Though we won the case and the school dropped the policy, this is far from the only important free speech case. When you support Alliance Defending Freedom’s effort to protect speech, it’s not just for our courageous clients. It’s YOUR rights that are at stake as well. Can the government fire you for your comments it doesn’t like that you posted on a personal blog? They did that to volunteer fire chaplain Dr. Andrew Fox. Can activists or ...

When the government discriminates against foster/adoptive parents based on their religious beliefs, children are harmed. These kids need a forever home—not political ideology. Christians and the church have been key to providing resources and open arms to vulnerable children for hundreds of years. The earliest orphanages in North America were created by dedicated Christian groups, and these faithful people continue to lead the way today. Yet, some state officials now reject Christian and other religious families—forcing children to wait longer for a loving home—because they disagree with the ...

For 60 years, the heart of the mission of Medford, OR-based 71Five Ministries has been to bring the hope of Jesus Christ to the youth in their community through trusting mentor relationships. The ministry has long participated in a state grant program designed to support existing services for youth at risk of disengaging from school, work, and community. Yet after being approved for over $400,000 in grants, the state rescinded the funds. The state discriminated against the group because of its Christian beliefs. The state claims the ministry is ineligible for the grants because it only hires ...

Liam Morrison couldn’t have imagined that he would be spending some of his middle school years in a courtroom helping to protect free speech for other students. But for Liam, the truth is worth it. At 12, he’s shown more courage than some adults. Now, he has a message of thanks to all the Ministry Friends who have helped support his case for freedom. Liam is a student at Nichols Middle School in Massachusetts. During his time there, he’s watched his school host celebrations of “Pride Week” and even encourage students to participate. But Liam believes the truth that gender is not based on our ...

As a mother of five, Jessica knows what it’s like to provide a loving home. And as a widow, she knows what it’s like to lose a part of your family. So after hearing about another person’s adoption story, she felt inspired to make a happy home for children in need in the state of Oregon. But in Oregon, parents like Jessica must agree to use a child’s preferred pronouns, take children to LGBT-affirming events like Pride parades, and facilitate a child’s access to dangerous pharmaceutical interventions like puberty blockers and hormone shots that can sterilize a young child. The Oregon Department ...
