Issues

Learn what's happening across the most pressing civil liberties issues of our time, and what you can do.

Smart Justice

Prosecutorial and parole reform are the focus of the ACLU’s Campaign for Smart Justice in Utah. Our goals include reducing incarceration rates by 50% and combating racial disparities in the criminal justice system.

State Advocacy

The ACLU of Utah plays an active role in creating and guiding policies that protect and expand civil liberties in our state. Today, years of hard-fought civil liberty protections are under threat — and to influence policy, we need everyone to get involved.

Student & Youth Rights

In school, young people not only learn about their constitutional rights but also see firsthand how those rights may be affected by the actions of others. The ACLU of Utah is dedicated to protecting students' constitutional rights and helping them understand their rights in school.
