About Arab American Institute Foundation

The Arab American Institute Foundation is a national civil rights advocacy organization headquartered in Washington, DC, dedicated to strengthening democracy and protecting civil rights and liberties. AAIF provides strategic analysis to policymakers and community members, offering evidence-based insights that inform critical decisions affecting Arab Americans and broader democratic participation. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, AAIF works to defend international human rights while ensuring that the nation's 3.7 million Arab Americans are represented effectively across all aspects of civic life. The Foundation organizes and mobilizes communities to create an informed and engaged constituency capable of influencing policy at local, state, and federal levels. AAIF's comprehensive approach combines research, advocacy, and community organizing to address systemic barriers to civic participation. By serving the Washington, DC area and operating nationally, AAIF connects policymakers with the insights they need to understand and respond to Arab American communities' concerns. The organization believes that meaningful democratic change requires full community engagement and that empowered communities drive broader social progress toward equality, justice, and inclusion.
