HOW DO WE
ADVOCATE FOR CHANGE?

The National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) is an independent, non-profit, non-partisan, grassroots human rights & civil liberties organization.

  • Lobby all levels of government
  • Defend the civil liberties of our communities in the courts
  • Educate Canadians about Islamophobia
  • Mobilize hundreds of thousands of Canadian Muslims to stand for change

Built from within the Canadian Muslim community, NCCM is a leading voice for Muslim civic engagement and the promotion of human rights. As Canada’s largest Muslim advocacy organization, NCCM is based at our Ottawa headquarters near Parliament Hill. We also have regional offices in the Greater Toronto Area, Montreal, Vancouver, Edmonton, London, and Halifax.
