The Red Bank Human Relations Advisory Committee promotes inclusivity and acceptance of all our borough's many diverse and multi-cultural residents.
On June 22, 1993, the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Red Bank adopted an ordinance that created the Red Bank Human Relations Advisory Committee.
The goal of the Committee is to advise the Mayor and Borough Council on ways to promote ethnic and cultural harmony among all Borough residents.
The Committee will propose ways to encourage goodwill, cooperation, and inclusivity among the diverse and multicultural residents of the Borough. It will also recommend educational and cultural programs to foster unity and develop a sense of community.
The Committee is dedicated to fostering an atmosphere of understanding and acceptance of each individual. Red Bank is a great place to live, work and grow giving us a unique opportunity to recognize, appreciate and celebrate the many cultures that make up our town.
Red Bank HRAC DIVERSITY STATEMENT is as follows: "Diversity, when it is accepted and respected, is a tremendous strength and asset for any community. It encompasses an understanding that each individual is unique and valuable to the welfare of the community. It recognizes and celebrates the differences amongst individuals, and capitalizes on the strengths resulting from these differences. Diversity works best when a community explores these differences in a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. The Human Relations Advisory Committee of Red Bank, NJ, in an effort to set an example for inclusivity, adopts the broadest definition of diversity with the following statement : The dimensions of diversity shall include, but are not limited to the following: race, ethnicity, religious belief, sexual orientation, sex, gender identity, disability, socioeconomic status, cultural orientation, physical abilities, political beliefs, age, and national origin and status."
If you are a resident of Red Bank and believe you have been harassed, intimidated, or discriminated against because of your race, color, creed, religion, national origin, citizenship, sex, marital status, sexual orientation, age, physical or mental disability, and/or veteran status, you should contact the Committee.
The Committee will handle your incident confidentially to the extent possible. It will investigate the situation and will make recommendations to the Mayor and Borough Council.
