Our Mission

The mission of this board is to help the city of Helena continue to foster a community where the voices and perspectives of all its citizens are valued. We seek to protect our residents and business owners from any perceived or actual cases of injustice, bias, or inequality. The goal is to create a greater sense of togetherness and unity by encouraging all residents to embrace our differences with patience and awareness, while focusing more on our commonalities. This is accomplished by identifying and creating opportunities to bridge the social gaps between members of our diverse community. We aim to build trust among all our citizens and encourage respect for one another to share ideas and promote positive dialogue.
