Join the Cincinnati Human Relations Commission as we celebrate “Human Rights Day” on today, December 10, 2014.

This year’s slogan, Human Rights 365, encompasses the idea that every day is Human Rights Day. It celebrates the fundamental proposition in the Universal Declaration that each one of us, everywhere, at all times is entitled to the full range of human rights, that human rights belong equally to each of us and bind us together as a global community with the same ideals and values.

The United Nations General Assembly proclaimed the 10^th day of December as Human Rights Day in 1950, to bring to the attention ‘of the peoples of the world’ the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as the common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations. 

CHRC’s mission is “to help our community to overcome prejudice and discrimination, build mutual respect and understanding, and become more harmonious and cohesive." This mission can only be complete with the understanding that we all are entitled to equal human rights no matter our race, class, or gender. 

We encourage you to join us and take a stand against inequality and discrimination in our community. Let’s make every day human rights day! #rights365
