The Newseum is a nonprofit organization focused on education and public understanding of the First Amendment. Its mission is to help the American public know, understand, value, and defend the freedoms of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition. Based in Washington, DC, it seeks to preserve the First Amendment for future generations by promoting broad understanding and active use of these rights. It serves the general public and professionals, including educators and journalists, through educational programs, conferences, and initiatives. A notable recent development is the launch of the First Amendment Academy in 2025 to educate people about the rights guaranteed by the First Amendment.
