MissionThe ACLU Foundation of Texas Inc. (ACLU Foundation) advances its mission of affirming and advancing freedom, dignity and equality by defending principles and advancing reforms in systems and institutions that create substantive and transformational change for all people, particularly those who have been historically left out of the promise of America due to systemic oppression, disenfranchisement and discrimination.MissionDesc

DescImmigrant Rights - The ACLU Foundation identifies appropriate entities for litigation, including sexual assault, the mistreatment and denial of adequate medical care to immigrant detainees and prisoners, the unconstitutional treatment of refugees and asylum seekers, the separation of families and detention of parents and children, and the use of racial profiling. In addition, litigation is being investigated around other inappropriate and potentially unconstitutional law enforcement tactics such as violations of the 4th, 5th and 14th amendments by local jurisdictions in the border region. During this period we successfully reversed the federal government's policy of separating migrating families; we launched MigraCam, a smartphone app designed to help people living in immigrant communities notify their family members and friends if detained by law enforcement in a raid or traffic stop that has been downloaded 30,000 times; and successfully enjoined the federal government from gutting asylum protections for immigrants fleeing domestic violence and gang brutality (this case is ongoing).Desc

DescCriminal Law Reform - This program works to end excessively harsh criminal justice policies that result in mass incarceration and stand in the way of a just and equal society. Project goals are ending over-incarceration in Texas with an emphasis on eliminating racial disproportionality, ending the privatization of prisons and jails in Texas, and ending the use of the death penalty in Texas. The ACLU Foundation conducted a public education campaign in Dallas County to encourage voters to learn more about the role of the District Attorney, a campaign that resulted in a 17% increase in voter turnout for the District Attorney race in the targeted areas of the city. The ACLU Foundation also helped fund and support the launch of a speech training program at a historically black university, Texas Southern University, for formerly incarcerated people. The first eight graduates of this certificate program have traveled around the state speaking about their lived experiences with the criminal justice system and have received honoraria for their efforts.Desc

DescOther Programs - LGBT Rights supports legal equality for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) individuals so every person can openly parent, work, live, and love. LGBT Texans lack the most basic protections against discrimination because of their sexual orientation. Neither federal nor state law bars discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity, and as a result, an LGBT Texan has no recourse if an employer, landlord, or shopkeeper discriminates. The goals are to ensure equality and dignity for all students in Texas schools and to repeal policies that force children raised by same-sex couples to be denied legally recognized relationships with both of their parents, leaving them vulnerable to the loss of the relationship with and support of a parent. We have supported with both financial and human resources the Transgender Education Network of Texas, a 501(c)(3) charity, and provided training for high school Gay Straight Alliances as well as pursued legal advocacy in a variety of school districts.Voting Rights seeks to protect every Texans legal right to vote in local, statewide, and national elections conducted in the State of Texas. Voter suppression laws have existed for decades prior to the Voting Rights Act of 1964 and continue in the State of Texas to this day. The objectives are to (1) educate the general public about laws designed to suppress voter registration and voter turnout, and (2) if laws suppressing the vote are passed, the ACLU Foundation of Texas works to prevent implementation of the laws by fighting in the state/federal court systems on the basis of constitutionality.Other programs have focused on conditions on death row, religious freedom and the Banned Book Project, one of the high-profile efforts throughout Texas. This 19-year-old project exposes censorship taking place in our schools, publishes an annual report citing all books challenged or banned by Texas 1,260 independent school districts, as well as hosts public readings and events in partnership with bookstores and library groups dedicated to raising awareness about censorship in classrooms and school libraries.Desc

Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Other Programs - LGBT Rights supports legal equality for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) individuals so every person can openly parent, work, live, and love. LGBT Texans lack the most basic protections against discrimination because of their sexual orientation. Neither federal nor state law bars discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity, and as a result, an LGBT Texan has no recourse if an employer, landlord, or shopkeeper discriminates. The goals are to ensure equality and dignity for all students in Texas schools and to repeal policies that force children raised by same-sex couples to be denied legally recognized relationships with both of their parents, leaving them vulnerable to the loss of the relationship with and support of a parent. We have supported with both financial and human resources the Transgender Education Network of Texas, a 501(c)(3) charity, and provided training for high school Gay Straight Alliances as well as pursued legal advocacy in a variety of school districts.Voting Rights seeks to protect every Texans legal right to vote in local, statewide, and national elections conducted in the State of Texas. Voter suppression laws have existed for decades prior to the Voting Rights Act of 1964 and continue in the State of Texas to this day. The objectives are to (1) educate the general public about laws designed to suppress voter registration and voter turnout, and (2) if laws suppressing the vote are passed, the ACLU Foundation of Texas works to prevent implementation of the laws by fighting in the state/federal court systems on the basis of constitutionality.Other programs have focused on conditions on death row, religious freedom and the Banned Book Project, one of the high-profile efforts throughout Texas. This 19-year-old project exposes censorship taking place in our schools, publishes an annual report citing all books challenged or banned by Texas 1,260 independent school districts, as well as hosts public readings and events in partnership with bookstores and library groups dedicated to raising awareness about censorship in classrooms and school libraries.

The Board then discusses the recommended compensation, deliberates and votes on approval.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key EmployeesCompensation for all other employees is determined internally by the Executive Director and the Human Resources Director after a review of comparable Texas organizations and 53 ACLU affiliates nationwide.
