China Human Rights Defenders (CHRD) is a non-government organization of domestic and overseas Chinese human rights activists and groups.[1] The organization is headquartered in Washington DC.[2] Its objective is to provide assistance to both human rights activists and victims of rights abuses, as well as to monitor developments in human rights and rule of law. CHRD supplies grants to Chinese human rights activists, as well as legal training and assistance.[3]

The group issues statements on human rights issues and its website provides news and background information.
