Membership Application  

From its inception the Bonner County Human Rights Task Force has refused to sit quietly and “let it happen.” The members of the Task Force strive to speak out whenever the rights, the safety, or the dignity of any individual in our community are threatened by intolerance or bigotry. The Task Force is determined to help build a community in which every individual can live without fear or intimidation, a community in which every citizen’s strength and contribution is valued, respected, and encouraged. Please join us.
