The objective of the Commission on Human Rights is to eliminate any form of discrimination that is based on race, color, ethnicity, nationality, gender, religion, income, sexual orientation, age, marriage or family status or disability in employment, housing and education.
This group is comprised of 15 commissioners representing a spectrum of men and women from various races and ethnicities as well as those with disabilities.
The Commission has an investigation unit, a job development center, a community relations unit and a pre-trial services unit to aid in the enforcement and promotion of non-discriminatory practices.
