Human Rights Commission

About the Commission

The Human Rights Commission created by the Fairfax County Board of  Supervisors consists of 12 county residents. The 12 member board has one representative for each Supervisor's District. Each member serves a three-year term. Three positions are appointed by the Chairman of the  Board of Supervisors. Annually the Commissioners elect a Chairperson,  a Vice-Chairperson, and a Secretary as officers of the Commission.

The Commission takes the approach of not only receiving and investigating complaints alleging a violation of the Human Rights Ordinance, but also of cooperating with the employers, the housing industry and other businesses in the County to make sure we all understand our duty to ensure equal opportunity and equal access.

 

The Human Rights Commission consists of the following members:

  • Gloria J. Crawford, Chair
  • Shahid S. Malik, Vice Chair
  • Eduardo Conde, Secretary
  • Bryan W. Hudson, Commissioner
  • Harry R. Salinas, Commissioner
  • Josh Shumaker, Commissioner
  • Denver Supinger, Commissioner
  • Adnan Bokhari, Commissioner
  • Glenda Blake, Commissioner

The Commission Meetings are typically held once or twice monthly.  The listing below are the current year's meeting minutes.  Meeting minutes are posted once approved by a quorum of the Commission.
