Civil rights advocacy is at the center of CAIR-Missouri's work. Civil rights staff at our office in St. Louis receive reports of discrimination on a regular basis and work to resolve them through mediation, negotiation, public pressure or, if necessary, through legal action.
CAIR-Missouri protects the civil rights of all Americans regardless of faith and has served dozens of victims of discrimination. Our services are often provided free of charge to the community.
If you or someone you know is ever contacted by members of law enforcement, even if it’s simply to “ask you a few questions,” CAIR-Missouri highly recommends you contact us for legal advice and/ or representation. Always remember that in the United States of America, you have rights under these sorts of situations.
At CAIR-Missouri believes in defending the civil rights of American-Muslims regardless of their ability to pay. In order to provide legal defense to American Muslims, CAIR-Missouri has established our "Legal Defense Fund". This is a pool of money that our chapter collects. We then use these funds to pay for the legal defense of clients. Currently we are raising funds to hire a full-time attorney who is better able to serve the community.
