The NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund (LDF) is a leading civil rights law organization fighting for racial justice and equity through litigation, advocacy, and public education on issues such as voting rights, school desegregation, and criminal justice reform.
Volunteers (often law students or legal professionals) assist LDF by supporting voter protection hotlines, conducting research for civil rights cases, hosting local events to inform communities about civil rights issues and legal rights, and helping fundraise to sustain LDF’s litigation work.
