With Black History Month arriving in February, Denver residents are being asked to participate in a survey.
Denver’s Agency for Human Rights & Community Partnerships and the Denver African American Commission are seeking feedback from residents to determine what the biggest needs of Black residents are in 2024. Adults 18 years or older living or working in the metro Denver area are encouraged to participate.
The survey covers typical challenges the Black community faces, such as treatment at jobs, schools and housing, as well as treatment by police.
Questions are open-ended and involve current and future legislative initiatives that the Denver African American Commission could champion on behalf of the community.
The commission advises the city and Mayor Mike Johnston on issues impacting the Black community.
“This is an important opportunity to make your voice heard and shape the future of the Denver African American Commission and of the community it represents,” said Bobbie Alexander of the Denver African American Commission in a news release.
