ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: November 6, 2008 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. 3- <br />SUBJECT: Presentation of Draft Orange County Social Justice Goal <br />DEPARTMENT: Human Rights and Relations PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />Office <br />ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Minutes from SJG Work Session Shoshannah Smith, 960-3877 <br />Social Justice Goal (Under Separate <br />Cover) <br />PURPOSE: To present the Orange County Human Relations Commission (HRC) <br />recommendations regarding a proposed Orange County Social Justice Goal as requested by <br />the Board of Commissioners. <br />BACKGROUND: The draft Social Justice Goal responds to a February 2004 directive from the <br />Orange County Board of Commissioners. The BOCC requested that the Orange County <br />Human Relations Commission (HRC), through the Human Rights and Relations Office (HR&R), <br />develop a proposed social justice goal for Orange County. <br />The HRC and staff solicited feedback from over 550 stakeholders representing diverse <br />segments of the Orange County community. The enclosed document was crafted based upon <br />input from Orange County residents, Orange County human services departments, and Orange <br />County citizen-advisory boards and commissions. <br />On February 12, 2008, the BOCC held a work session with the HRC to discuss the progress of <br />the Social Justice Goal project. The HRC took feedback from this work session and, after <br />extensive editing and review, created the attached final draft Social Justice Goal report. The <br />body of the report has been condensed to five (5) pages, with extensive reference material <br />included in the three (3) attached appendices. The major goals included in the report are <br />summarized as follows: <br />• Foster a Community Culture that Rejects Oppression and Inequity <br />• Ensure Economic Self-Sufficiency <br />• Create a Safe Community <br />• Establish Sustainable and Equitable Land-Use and Environmental Policies <br />• Enable Full Civic Participation <br />
