Spurred by the political environment created by the McCarthy hearings and the blossoming Civil Rights Movement in the south back in 1958, Adam Mickey Duncan, an attorney and member of the Utah House of Representatives helped secure the charter for the ACLU of Utah from the national ACLU. He and co-founders Spencer W. Kimball, Dean of the University of Utah Law School, and Stephen Smoot were tireless advocates of racial equality, separation of church and state, and free speech.

The ACLU of Utah strives to ensure that LGBTQ people have equal opportunity to participate fully in civil society by securing freedom from sexual orientation and gender identity discrimination in the workplace, in housing, in businesses, and public places.
