For several decades, the Prince William County Branch NAACP has worked to ensure civil rights compliance, equitable treatment of all, the attainment of educational excellence, and economic empowerment, criminal justice, and civic engagement.  We are a 21st century advocacy organization that has fought and continues to fight for the advancement of minority groups by bridging the gaps that exist in these areas.  We rely on the membership and participation of socially conscious individuals of all races, religions, political affiliations and ideologies.  We have fought and won many battles to end racism, and injustice; there is still much work to be done.  With your help we can build on the tremendous progress we have made and work together to eliminate the barriers to freedom and equality for all.

• The mission of the NAACP is to eliminate racial prejudice and to remove all barriers of racial discrimination through the democratic process. This mission is carried out through the implementation of several programs and services. The organization actively keeps its hand on the pulse of the community and modifies its programs and services to meet the changing times. To the extent possible, matters of concern are addressed proactively so that their impact to the community is minimal. The organization also lends a helping hand to citizens in need who have been the victim of unfortunate circumstances. Currently, the organization is focusing its attention on the following:
  • Economic Sustainability –  A chance to live the American Dream for all
    • Every Person will have equal opportunity to achieve economic success, sustainability, and financial security.
  • Education – A free, high-quality, public education for all
    • Every child will receive a free, high quality, equitably-funded, public pre-K and K-12 education followed by diverse opportunities for accessible, affordable vocational or university education.
  • Health –  Health equality for all Americans including a healthy life and high-quality health care
    • Everyone will have equal access to affordable, high-quality health care, and racially disparate health outcomes will end.
  • Public Safety and Criminal Justice – Equitable Safety and Criminal Justice
    • Disproportionate incarceration, racially motivated policing strategies, and racially biased, discriminatory, and mandatory minimum sentencing will end.
