Hate Crime - Programs

This section provides examples of State and local programs and initiatives available online.

Coalition Against Hate Crimes
The Coalition Against Hate Crimes (CAHC) was started by the American Jewish Committee in Portland, Oregon. The first meeting was held early October 1997. Members are representatives from a wide variety of community and government organizations. The mission of CAHC is to use the moral authority of the Coalition and its members to give expression to the community conscience as spelled out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its covenants.

The Intelligence Project
The Intelligence Project tracks the activities of more than 800 racist and neo-Nazi groups. Auburn University Montgomery (AUM), in cooperation with the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), have launched a new approach to hate crime training - an online program that offers law enforcement officers college credit and continuing education credit, as well as FLETC recognition.

A World of Difference Institute
The Anti-Defamation League offers specially designed training programs for law enforcement professionals. These programs help develop awareness and skills for working within a highly pluralistic society; identify and report hate crimes; examine how antibias skills affect law enforcement work, especially regarding hate crimes; and examine appropriate responses to on-the-job situations, using case studies and large and small discussion groups.
