about us

The Middletown Branch of the NAACP was reactivated in 2024, thanks to the devoted work of community volunteers.

Our mission is to achieve equity, political rights, and social inclusion by advancing policies and practices that expand human and civil rights, eliminate discrimination, and accelerate the well-being, education, and economic security of Black people and all persons of color.

 

If you live or work in western Orange County, we welcome you to be part of our effort to serve our community.
