The American Civil Liberties Union of Vermont is a small non-profit based in Montpelier, Vermont, focused on safeguarding civil liberties through advocacy, legal action, and public education. Its work centers on criminal justice reform within Vermont, including campaigns to reduce incarceration and to address racial disparities. Historical campaigns include efforts to inform voters about the influence of prosecutors in the state's criminal-legal system. These activities situate the organization within Vermont's civil rights advocacy and legal reform landscape. Recent developments include the launch of Firewall for Freedom to address federal overreach, and a lawsuit filed against the Department of Education regarding its campaign to rewrite the law. The organization has partnered with Brooks Memorial Library and local LGBTQ+ groups to offer art-based programming that explores autonomy and freedom, part of a larger national art installation.
