Citizens for Decency is a faith-based organization committed to promoting biblical values, safeguarding religious liberty, and protecting children and families. We bring together individuals, churches, and communities under one unified voice to stand for truth in today’s culture.
To honor God by promoting biblical values, defending freedom, and equipping families and communities to stand for truth.
A nation where God is honored, families thrive, religious liberty flourishes, and every child is protected.
Parents today are overwhelmed. They are handed books with vague descriptions, hidden themes, and no real way to know what their children are being exposed to. Families deserve clarity. Children deserve protection.
That is why BookLens exists.
BookLens is a breakthrough, parent-first platform that cuts through the noise and gives families honest, values-aligned insight into what is inside the books their children bring home. It is simple. It is trustworthy. And it is built for the world we are living in right now.
BookLens is not just another app — it is a shield. We protect it with the same seriousness that parents protect their children.
Families are using BookLens to navigate thousands of titles with confidence. Churches, schools, and community groups are asking for access. The demand is growing faster than we can build.
Every dollar directly fuels a platform that protects children and empowers families.
BookLens is more than a project — it is a movement. With your partnership, we can give parents across the nation the clarity they have been waiting for.
Join us. Protect childhood innocence. Empower families. Build something that lasts.

Citizens for Decency actively engages in advocacy efforts to protect families, defend religious liberty, and influence public policy in alignment with biblical values.
One of our most urgent initiatives has been exposing explicit and sexually inappropriate content found in public and school libraries. Through extensive research and documentation efforts, we identified numerous titles in school libraries containing graphic sexual material and adult themes inappropriate for minors.
Investigations into library collections at DCHS, AHS, and OHS revealed books containing explicit sexual content, graphic nudity, abusive sexual acts, and other mature themes categorized as inappropriate for children and teens.
These discoveries became a defining turning point for our organization and directly inspired the creation of BookLens, BookTelescope, and the Daily Publishers Sweep. Families needed tools that could quickly identify harmful content and provide trustworthy, values-aligned insight.
Reviews and documentation for many of these titles were referenced through RatedBooks.org and BookLooks.org as part of our ongoing research and educational outreach efforts.
As our advocacy efforts gained attention, local media outlets and activist groups frequently mischaracterized our mission and positions. In response, our website became a critical hub for transparency, documentation, and direct rebuttal of misinformation.
Our Media Response section has become one of the most visited areas of our website because it provides citizens with original source material, detailed responses to public claims, policy analysis, and documented evidence connected to our advocacy work.
Rather than allowing false narratives to stand unchallenged, Citizens for Decency documents claims, publishes source-backed responses, and encourages citizens to examine the evidence for themselves.
Your voice matters. Join us in standing for truth by signing petitions, attending events, and engaging with your local representatives.

Our goal is to help citizens better understand where candidates stand on issues affecting families, parental rights, children, and community standards.
