ONE DIRECTION: FORWARD

Millions of Americans have cast their ballots in one of the most consequential elections of our time. From congressional seats to judicial appointments, and ballot propositions, America decided.

To everyone who voted, thank you.

Regardless of who sits in the White House or the State House, the NAACP stands resolute in our mission to protect the civil rights and dignity of Black and marginalized communities. Our commitment to justice and equality remains unshakable.

This moment in time calls for resilience and unwavering vigilance. We will not be deterred from our mission. Our vision of equitable policies, safe communities, and meaningful opportunities for our people continues. We will hold leaders accountable, amplify our voices, and advocate fiercely for reforms that protect the health, safety, and prosperity of every Black individual across this nation.

Our priorities are clear:

Advancing racial justice means fighting against discriminatory practices head-on to build a more equitable society for all.

Creating an inclusive economy that works for everyone and one that prioritizes inclusion.

Building health equity for Black families by expanding access to affordable, high-quality healthcare and addressing the disparities affecting our communities.

Promoting environmental justice to protect communities of color from the harmful effects of pollution and to reverse climate change.

Ensuring equal access to education through resources and advocacy to guarantee our children the educational opportunities they deserve.

Protecting women's rights by defending access and autonomy in reproductive healthcare, workplace protections, and beyond.

Securing voting access to protect the fundamental right for all to participate freely in democracy.

This isn't the end. It's the chance for a new moment in our shared journey toward freedom and justice. Join us as we double down, empowered by a vision to protect our communities and build a future where we can all thrive.
