POLICY STATEMENT

Whenever and wherever in Monmouth County actions are taken, words are printed or spoken, pictures and graffiti are drawn that encourage bigotry, bias, or hatred and cause fear and anxiety in any group, the Monmouth County Human Relations Commission should respond as circumstances warrant. The chairperson, together with the other officers and/or the Executive Committee, should consider all pertinent details and determine the best course of action. Any response should offer criticism of the incident and emphasize constructive suggestions on how relationships among the many communities of our multi-cultural society can be improved. Furthermore, the resources of Monmouth County’s Human Relations Commission should be offered.
