Kitsap County Commissioners seek Human Rights Council
applicants
PORT
ORCHARD, WA—North Kitsap County residents are encouraged to apply
for a District 1 vacancy on the Kitsap County Council for Human Rights. The
council’s twelve members advise the Kitsap County commissioners on issues
related to prejudice, discrimination, racially motivated violence and
malicious harassment. The council promotes equitable treatment of all
citizens and works to reduce prejudice and its effects through prevention
policies, education, resource referrals, and advocacy. Together with the
board of county commissioners, they sponsor the Annual Human Rights
Conference.
Except in December, the council meets on the second Tuesday of every month
at 6:00 p.m. Their meetings, which are open to the public, are usually held
at the Silverdale Community Center.
