National Religious Campaign Against Torture

The National Religious Campaign Against Torture (NRCAT) is an interfaith, membership organization whose mission is to abolish U.S.-sponsored torture. NRCAT works for an end to torture in four areas: 1. To ensure that U.S.-sponsored torture of detainees never happens again. 2. To end the use of torture in U.S. prisons and detention facilities, in particular the use of prolonged solitary confinement. 3. To end U.S. support (direct or indirect) of any country that engages in torture and to work for U.S. policies that help other nations stop their torture practices. 4. To end the bigotry and hatred that promotes the practice and acceptance of torture against religiously, ethnically and other targeted groups.
