Alliance Defending Freedom is a legal organization that forms alliances to advocate for the right to freely live out one's faith. Its work centers on religious liberty and related issues such as the sanctity of life and marriage and family, pursued through litigation and strategic advocacy. The group operates as a mid-sized organization within the law practice space, pursuing its objectives through legal action and coalition-building. Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, ADF was founded in 1994 by a broad group of Christian ministry leaders. It emphasizes alliance-building alongside legal action to advance faith-based goals in public policy and the courts. A 2026 development notes the organization’s involvement in litigation activity, such as assisting in a case against the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education in North Carolina.
