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.

And officials in my program have undergone ADF-provided First Amendment training ...

In Connecticut, boys who identify as female can compete in girls’ athletic events.

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 ...

He bravely stood up to the unlawful demands, and now attorneys with Alliance Defending Freedom are suing to protect his right to speak without fear of government punishment. But he’s far from the only American who is facing ...
