Cuban Committee for Human Rights

XXI Siglo Comité Cubano Pro Derechos Humanos

The Cuban Committee for Democracy, Inc. (CCD) is a non-profit organization of Cuban Americans and individuals of other nationalities from all walks of life, including professionals, laborers, academics and entrepreneurs, who seek a peaceful, negotiated transition to democracy in Cuba. The CCD, founded in 1993, represents the more moderate sector of the Cuban American community, whose voice is not otherwise represented by other existing organizations. CCD is not a political party. Rather, it seeks to fill a void and to address the misperception that the Cuban American community is monolithic and uniformly conservative.
