Activist Toolkit

Whether you are an experienced activist or someone taking action for the first time, the ACLU of Northern California is here to help every step of the way.

The Activist Toolkit contains detailed instructions on everything an activist needs:


Running an effective meeting

Tabling at community events

Writing an advocacy letter

Hosting an event for your friends and neighbors

Publicizing an event

Planning a campaign

This toolkit will teach you effective strategies for educating the public and motivating elected officials to vote for civil liberties.  The checklists walk you through every step in planning a successful event.

When you’re ready to put your plan into action, contact us for information sheets, color brochures, buttons, posters, and other materials to support your work and make an impact on your target audience.

The defense and promotion of civil liberties has always been in the hands of activists like you.






"During my tenure at the ACLU, I got to work with young people who may not have heard about the ACLU previously, but once they understood what we were all about, they were so motivated to fight for their own rights and for the rights of others."
Nancy Otto, ACLU-NC Activist
