As previously mentioned, our Board President and Executive Director are proud members of the San Diego Regional Hate Crimes Coalition. This coalition is a collaboration of non-governmental organizations, community-based groups, and public servants. They coordinate outreach, education, and dialogue regarding bullying, hate incidents, and hate crimes in the San Diego Region. The goal is the prevention of hate in the San Diego area through collaboration and collective understanding of our individual missions.
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in fear, uncertainty, and concern for the security of our health, finances and liberties. Historically, these conditions have led many to look for someone to blame, demonize, and scapegoat. Not only that, but with the killing of George Floyd, repeated police brutality, and murder of Ahmud it is extremely important we continue to fight and raise our voices and never let fear lead us to intimidate, threaten, or harm other simply because of their identity.
