Upholding Rights and Values: The Mission of Alliance Defending Freedom
Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) stands as a beacon of hope for those seeking to protect their religious
freedom, life, and marriage values. Founded in 1994 as Alliance Defense Fund,
ADF has become a fundamental ally in legal battles revolving around these core
issues in the United States. With a roster of accomplished attorneys and a
commitment to justice, ADF works tirelessly to safeguard the rights of
individuals and organizations.
One of ADF’s key principles is the belief that everyone should have the liberty to
live by their religious values without fear of retaliation. The organization’s
legal battles span a wide range of critical issues, from protecting the right
to pray in public schools to defending crisis pregnancy centers from unjust
mandates. ADF’s success in landmark cases, notably Masterpiece Cakeshop v.
Colorado Civil Rights Commission, demonstrates its prowess in defending
religious freedom in the legal arena.
In Arlene s Flowers v State of Washington, Alliance Defending
Freedom championed the case of Barronelle Stutzman, a florist who faced legal action
for declining to provide a floral arrangement for a same-sex wedding. Despite
her referral to other florists, Stutzman faced charges, prompting ADF to step
in and defend her fundamental rights.
Beyond the U.S. borders, ADF International expands its reach,
championing religious freedom on a global scale. The organization s commitment
extends to protecting the rights of individuals of various faiths, including
Muslims, Christians, Jews, and those without religious affiliations.
With a mission rooted in upholding religious freedom, ADF continues to advocate
fiercely for the principles of free speech, traditional marriage, family
values, parental rights, and the sanctity of life. This unwavering dedication
solidifies ADF’s position as a leading defender of fundamental freedoms, both
at home and abroad.
