Be
it resolved that the Bucks County Human Relations Council encourages patience,
tolerance, and acceptance of our fellow
citizens. In this uncertain time when our world is in a state of distress we need to reach out to each other with open arms
of healing.
Bucks County, Pennsylvania was founded in 1682 as a safe haven of religious tolerance, with an appreciation
for the diverse heritages of its settlers. Now, over three hundred years later, Bucks
County’s residents continue to celebrate the contributions that each of our
racial, ethnic, and religious groups brings to enrich our community and our lives in Bucks
County.
We must recognize and remember
that there is strength in our diversity. We are enriched by our ability to respect and honor our differences. Standing together,
we are like the many varieties of flowers in a healthy garden, each contributing to its overall color, vitality and beauty.
The
Bucks County Human Relations Council provides support and assistance on both the issues of promoting appreciation for the
value of diversity and for addressing discrimination. We welcome your thoughts and/or your request for assistance.
