“They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
- Benjamin Franklin

We believe in honoring and protecting the Constitution of the United states of America. We also believe that our Second Amendment Right to Bear Arms is the single most important tool we have to guarantee all other Rights remain secure. This single amendment guarantees our futures and freedoms.

We also interpret the Second Amendment to be clear in its message that the ability to bear arms should never come with stipulations of training or licensure. While we hold this belief and support all efforts to remove these restrictions, the reality is that millions of Americans must seek training in order to comply with their state and local governments. Additionally, we believe that those who choose to exercise their right and duty to arm themselves should seek training of their own volition out of a sense of personal responsibility to ensure they are safe, responsible, and effective in their role as protectors. However, many Americans are unable to seek professional training due to the financial burden associated with high quality instruction.

American Defense Coalition was created to bridge the gap between law abiding citizens and the training they need to safely and effectively operate as protectors of their families and communities. We are dedicated to empowering individuals through accessible and comprehensive training in firearms, self-defense, situational awareness, emergency first aid, and more. Our mission is to build stronger, safer communities by supporting responsible, armed, and prepared citizens.

Through donations, grants, and memberships, we strive to eliminate the financial barriers that often prevent people from accessing critical training. When someone enrolls in a course with one of our vetted partner instructors, they will have the option to pay any amount they’re comfortable with for the course. We ensure the instructors are fully compensated by covering the difference between the cost of the course and what the participant was able to pay. By using this “pay what you can” system, we can ensure these critical and potentially life-saving courses are available for all who wish to learn.

Together, we are committed to fostering a culture of safety, preparedness, and responsible defensive practices for a safer and more secure United States of America.

Our Mission

Imagine a world where high quality firearm training is accessible to all responsible citizens, no matter their income. Where life-saving First Aid / Stop-the-Bleed classes were easily accessible without saving for months. Imagine a time when school teachers could receive critical training like concealed carry and school shooter response. In short, imagine a nation of well-armed, well trained patriots actively maintaining the safety of our communities.

This is exactly why the American Defense Coalition exists, and we have a plan to make it happen. But, we need your help. If you feel the way we do and believe this version of our country is worth the fight, please consider supporting our mission by donating or becoming an ADC Member today.

Easily make one-time or recurring donations that will go directly to supporting the mission of creating a nation of safer communities.
