American Civil Liberties Union of North Carolina
U.S. left-leaning civil liberties advocacy
The ACLU of North Carolina is a nonprofit civil liberties advocacy and legal organization, structured as both a 501(c)(4) membership group and a 501(c)(3) legal foundation. It consistently takes positions aligned with progressive causes — including immigrants' rights, voting access, LGBTQ equality, and reproductive rights — and is broadly critical of the Trump administration's second-term agenda, having filed lawsuits challenging immigration enforcement practices in North Carolina and opposing several federal policy directives. It is an advocacy organization, not a news outlet; it produces press releases, legal filings, and policy reports rather than independent journalism.
Owned byNonprofit membership organization; state affiliate of the national American Civil Liberties Union. Governed by its own board of directors. No private owner or parent company holds it — the national ACLU maintains an affiliate relationship but does not own the state chapter.
