City of Shoreview
Home MenuHuman Rights Commission
This commission advises and aids the City of Shoreview by establishing and promoting a community standard of equal opportunity and freedom from discrimination. We envision a community where all people are welcomed, valued, and respected; where each person feels at home.
Human rights can be defined as those basic rights without which people cannot live in dignity as human beings. Human rights are not bought, earned, or inherited; they belong to all people simply because all people are human. Human rights are inherent to each individual.

- Developing educational programs and increasing awareness
