    No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion.

    People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love. It is only through education that we find the wisdom to trade hate for compassion.

    — Nelson Mandela

    For the past 25 years NMHRP has provided tools and opportunities for teachers, students and community members to address the dangers of discrimination and the importance of respecting differences. Our objective has always been to bring people together to dialogue and our method has always been face to face.  Because of recent world health events and shifting modes of communication, we are evaluating how to adapt to the current conditions while still meeting our objective. Therefore, we are currently pausing our programming to determine how we can best move forward to serve our community.
