Pottstown Human Relations Commission
Structure
The Human Relations Commission is a nine-member team of volunteers appointed
by the Mayor and confirmed by the Borough Council of Pottstown. The diverse
team serves to improve the quality of human relations within the Borough of Pottstown.

Its mission is to promote mutual understanding, respect and cooperation among
all racial, cultural, religious, ethnic and other groups within the Borough of
Pottstown.
The Commission monitors the status of human relations within the Borough.
It holds multi-cultural educational events.

services to Borough residents.
Mediation is an opportunity for people to openly discuss conflict and determine
whether reconciliation is possible. The parties may speak in
a confidential setting directly to each other and be heard. Most of
the commissioners are trained mediators.

At times, the Commission will refer individuals to the Pennsylvania
Human Relations Commissions for consideration of a formal hearing.
