American Constitution Society for Law and Policy (ACS) is a national organization that believes that law should be a force to improve the lives of all people. The mission of ACS is to harness the values of compassion and respect for each individual, and to re-incorporate them into American law and politics, in order to build a stronger and more decent national community. ACS strives for positive change by shaping debate on important legal and constitutional issues through development and promotion of high-impact ideas to opinion leaders and the media; and by building networks of lawyers, law students, judges and policymakers dedicated to those ideas.
The ACS student chapter of William S. Richardson School of law seeks to embrace the goals and values of ACS as they pertain to the law school, the University of Hawaii and the local community at large. By bringing together powerful, relevant ideas and passionate, talented people, ACS makes a difference in the constitutional, legal and public policy debates that shape our democracy.
