ADL is a leading anti-hate organization.

ADL is a leading anti-hate organization. Founded in 1913 in response to an escalating climate of anti-Semitism and bigotry, its timeless mission is to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all. Today, ADL continues to fight all forms of hate with the same vigor and passion. ADL Education provides resources and curricula that encourage people of all ages to reflect on identity and culture, understand its impact, and to examine bias in themselves, others and society. Through in-person trainings, online curricula and self-administered program support materials, we reach students, educators, faculty and family members in PreK-12 schools and on college and university campuses. We also work with employers, employees and U.S. law enforcement agencies.
