United Against Hate: A Panel Discussion
Join us for an insightful discussion to be United Against Hate
Join us in this teaching community members how to identify, report, and help prevent hate crimes; and building trust between law enforcement and communities through the U.S. Department of Justice United Against Hate initiative.
This will be a panel discussion to connect community groups to federal and local law enforcement to increase community understanding and reporting of hate crimes and hate incidents and to create and strengthen alliances between law enforcement and other government partners and community groups to combat unlawful acts of hate, particularly as they relate to the LGBTQIA+ community.
RSVP for an Event Reminder email; attendance is first-come, first-served until capacity is reached.

About the initiative: In September 2022, Attorney General Merrick B. Garland announced that over the next year, all 94 U.S. Attorneys’ Offices (USAOs) would host a new nationwide initiative to combat unlawful acts of hate. So far, USAOs have hosted over 50 United Against Hate events across the country.
