Commissioners educate the public about human rights; organize events and programs that bring people together; hold an annual awards ceremony recognizing youth, leaders, and businesses who make a positive impact; and make recommendations to City Council on the Human Rights Grant
The Commission meets at 5:30 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month.
