You donations will create access to training with The United States Department of Justice Community Relations Service (CRS) for communities facing conflict based on actual or perceived race, color, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, or disability. CRS works toward its mission by providing facilitated dialogue, mediation, training, and consultation to assist these communities to come together, develop solutions to the conflict, and enhance their capacity to independently prevent and resolve future conflict. WIth trained staff we plan to be a resource for the DOJ in the Myrtle Beach and Horry Countiy area.
