Humboldt County is home to a rich diversity of communities. Indigenous nations, Latino farmworkers, the LGBTQ+ community, immigrants, and people of many backgrounds and abilities. The HCDCC is committed to building a county where everyone belongs and everyone thrives.

We affirm:

• The sovereignty and rights of the Wiyot, Yurok, Karuk, Hupa, and all tribal nations of the North Coast, and support for government-to-government relationships built on genuine respect and partnership

• Full civil rights and equal protection under the law for LGBTQ+ individuals and families, including strong opposition to anti-trans legislation at every level of government

• The dignity and rights of Humboldt County's immigrant and farmworker communities, and opposition to immigration enforcement that tears families apart

• Equity in public education, healthcare, housing, and economic opportunity with particular attention to closing gaps for communities of color and rural communities

• A county government and Democratic Party that reflects the full diversity of the people we serve

DEI is not a slogan. It is the ongoing, necessary work of building a democracy that includes everyone.
