The NAACP was established in 1909 and is America's oldest and largest civil rights organization. It was formed in New York City by white and black activists, partially in response to the ongoing violence against African Americans around the country.

The mission of the NAACP is to secure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights in order to eliminate race-based discrimination and ensure the health and well-being of all persons.

The NAACP San Mateo branch was chartered in February 1926. For 100 years, we have fought for the civil rights of all, regardless of sexual identity, residency status, political affiliation, or race.
