ADC is at the forefront in combating defamation and negative stereo-
typing of Arab Americans in the media and wherever else it is practiced. In
doing so, it acts as an organized framework through which Arab Americans
can channel their efforts toward unified, collective and effective advocacy; by
promoting a more balanced U.S. Middle East policy and serving as a reliable
source for the news media and educators. By promoting cultural events and
participating in community activities, ADC has made great strides in correcting
anti-Arab stereotypes and humanizing the image of the Arab people. In all
these efforts, ADC coordinates closely with other civil rights and human rights
organizations on issues of common concern. Through its Department of Legal
Services, ADC offers counseling in cases of discrimination and defamation and
selected impact litigation in the areas of immigration. Additional information

The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee is committed to:
- Empowering Arab Americans;
- Defending the civil rights of all people of Arab heritage in the United
States;
- Promoting civic participation;
- Encouraging a balanced U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and;
- Supporting freedom and development in the Arab World.
Now more than ever, the Arab-American community needs a powerful,
effective national and local organization to defend its interests. ADC is that
organization. ADC was founded in 1980 by former U.S. Senator James
Abourezk.
