Commission on Human Rights

History

The County of Sonoma Commission on Human Rights (CHR) was established in 1993 to promote better human relations between all people in Sonoma County. We are advisors to the Board of Supervisors on areas that impact the human rights of members of our community.

The basis for our work is the International Declaration of Human Rights established by the United Nations in 1948. It comprises the worldwide standard of Human Rights for all people on earth.

The following resolutions and projects will highlight the Commission's work.
