OUR HISTORY

COMMISSION “To seek out the causes of tension and conflict, discrimination and intolerance and eliminate those causes.”

In 1971, the Orange County Board of Supervisors in collaboration with the League of Cities created the Orange County Human Relations Commission. Over the last 34 years, Orange County has changed dramatically, transitioning from a predominately white suburban community to a diverse urban county, of the more than 3 million residents. Two thirds of the students in Orange County K-12 schools are ethnic minorities. This rapid demographic change underscores the need for an effective human relations organization. The Commission is governed by 11 Commissioners appointed by the Board of Supervisors and the League of Cities, and administered by the Orange County Housing Community Services Depart- ment.

COUNCIL “To foster mutual understanding among residents in order to make Orange County a better place for ALL people to live, work and do business.”

The Orange County Human Relations Council is a private, non-profit 501(c)3 organization founded in 1991 for the purpose of developing and implementing proactive human relations programs in partner- ship with schools, corporations, cities, foundations and individuals. The Council provides an award winning violence prevention program in the schools, conflict resolution programs and inter group relations initiatives in the communities all over Orange County. Supported through grants, donations, fees and contracts, the Council is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of diverse community leaders and guided by a Community Partners Advisory Board that is comprised of executives from major corporations and institutions.

AWARDS 34

OC Human Relations captured the attention of 425 guests at Awards 34 honoring those in our schools, communities and police departments whose efforts are making a difference in how people are respected and included.

Sponsors and underwriters included businesses, individuals, cities, foundations and school districts. This year ’s awards were presented to 12 deserving recipients in three categories:

relations by partnering with schools and communities

to create and sustain a safe, inclusive school climate BRIDGES that respects society’s diversity.

Since 1988, BRIDGES has worked cooperatively with the entire school commu- nity—students, parents, teachers, administrators and staff —to meet each individual school’s needs and objectives. The program trains participants to use positive peer support to promote inter-group understanding and alternatives to violence in schools.

Summer Institutes Tackle Tough Topics The two week-long Leigh Steinberg Human Relations Institutes brought 35 students together for five days of advanced human relations training. Topics ranged from social responsibility to examining the effects of poverty in Orange County.

For 34 years, OC Human Relations has increased social cohesion by organizing community building initiatives with the collabora- tion of diverse non-profit organizations, law enforcement agencies and residents.

Hate Crime and Police Guides Published “Hate Crimes—A Guide for Victims” was designed to assist victims and their families with information such as agencies to contact, civil and criminal resources, and victim assistance.

“Interacting with the Police—Rights and Responsibilities and Com- mendations and Complaints” was developed with the assistance of a police advisory committee to provide an effective brochure on police and community relations issues. Both are available upon request.

Diversity Training Launched with St. Joseph Health System Among numerous trainings for businesses, organizations, commu- nities and law enforcement, a collaborative diversity training was launched with St. Joseph Health System.

-8- Highlights

The Dispute Resolution Program OC Human Relations provides services to all residents of Orange County who are interested in resolving a dispute with the aid of a third party neutral mediator. Once both parties agree to resolve the dispute through mediation and are ready to meet, a mediation session is scheduled. The goal is to reach an agreement that is satisfactory to both parties. Projects of the Dispute Resolution Program are Community Mediation Services, Court Mediation Services and the Common Ground Project.

Community Mediation Services Mediation services offer an alternative to those who are un- comfortable with the legal system or are unaware of their rights and seek a friendlier approach to resolving their con- Common Ground flicts.
