Athens Area Human Relations Council

Welcome to the Channel of the Athens Area Human Relations Council, Inc. (AAHRC).   The AAHRC exists to provide community leadership, support, and direction for the development of educational and social programming addressing multicultural relations in our community.

Goals: 
1. Re-examine, initiate, and support actions designed to improve and bring harmony to multicultural relations in the Athens community and abroad.
2. Provide a forum for concerned citizens to discuss, work together and render volunteer service to build better human relations in the community.
3. Continually advocate and maintain the high idealism of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. which provides a framework for social justice for all humanity.
4. Advocate actions to reduce violence in our homes, streets, and schools.
