What is hate?
Acts of hate target your identity—your race, color, creed, religion, ancestry, gender, sexual orientation, physical or mental disability, citizenship, immigration status, or national origin. These aspects of identity are legally protected classes.
ABOUT THE COMMISSION ON DISCRIMINATION AND HATE CRIMES.
Our mission is to identify and uproot sources of discrimination and bias at the source, while assisting with the development of resouces, training, and information that allow for a swift and efficient response to hate-motivated crimes and incidents.
