If you'd like your sign delivered ( Burbank only) please sign in below in the CONTACT US portion of this website; include you address in comments, or email TheBHRC@gmail.com
The YARD SIGN campaign is a FREE community building program because of a generous donation made to the BHRC by past President, John P. Brady. He rests in eternal peace.
If you are the victim, or witness of, a hate incident or hate crime you can now report the crime or incident with 211 LA. Your report is confidential and 211 is not affiliated with law enforcement. CALL 211 to report.

Uniting together is the most powerful tool we have to build an inclusive community. Join us in the effort to communicate your commitment to make everyone feel safe and supported.
The County of Los Angeles Commission on Human Relations provides many resources. BHRC receives consulting services from the County HRC.
The 1960s was a turbulent time in America. Racial tensions were high and change needed to happen. The Burbank Human Relations Council is a local organization that has helped pave the way for a more inclusive and diverse community.
In November 2020 BHRC met with Burbank City Council Members
We reviewed BHRC history, some areas of focus, plans for community engagement including Stand Against Hate initiative, Neighborhood Sign Campaign, and 2021 Community Dialogues. We presented action items for consideration including a Sundown Town Resolution ( see below). The Council Council adopted the resolution on Tuesday DECEMBER 8, 2020!
The resolution set forth a commitment to review City policies and practices through an anti-racist lens, and engage with the community on issues of racism, discrimination and social justice.
