President’s Message

“It’s no small task to move the needle on community understanding, respect, and acceptance. And yet HREI continues to succeed in acheiving its mision and remain committed to providing responsive and relevant programs that promote the human rights for all who call the Pacific Northwest home. As a proud Coeur d’Alene native, I’m honored to serve as board president. On behalf of an appreciative board of directors, I want to thank everyone who’s contributed to HREI’s success including its talented staff, dedicated volunteers, and gracious donors.”
