About FIRE

The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) is a nonprofit educational foundation based in Philadelphia, PA and Washington, D.C. FIRE’s core mission is to defend and sustain individual rights at America’s colleges and universities. These rights include freedom of speech, legal equality, due process, academic freedom, religious liberty, and sanctity of conscience—the essential qualities of individual liberty and dignity. FIRE protects the unprotected and educates the public about the threats to these rights on our campuses and about the means to preserve them.
