The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) is to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination.
The NAACP believes strongly that future leaders must be developed today, and such development is ongoing in the Youth & College Division of the organization, created in 1936. Today there are more than 25,000 young people, under the age of 25 actively involved in the fight for civil rights. The NAACP has one of the largest organized groups of young people of any secular organization in the country.
