Source evidence
1 src · 2 checksNoteThe source directly confirms that Access Now was founded in 2009. Multiple references in the source text explicitly state this founding date: the narrative section describes the organization being 'formed in a moment of hope during the 2009 Iranian election,' and the team section notes that Brett Solomon 'co-founded Access Now in 2009.' This directly matches the claim.
NoteWhile the source URL (https://www.accessnow.org/about-us/) is the correct page where founding information would typically be found, the actual text excerpt provided does not contain any mention of Access Now's founding date. The excerpt consists mainly of form fields, country dropdowns, and section headers without the substantive 'About Us' content that would include founding information. To verify this claim, the full 'About Us' page content would need to be examined.
