KCHR Commissioners

The Kentucky Commission on Human Rights is a state agency, that was created in 1960 to encourage fair treatment, foster mutual understanding and respect, and discourage discrimination against any racial or ethnic group or its members.  The commission body consists of 11 commissioners who are appointed by the Governor from Kentucky's seven judicial districts and the state-at-large. As commissioners, they are charged with the responsibility of developing policy for the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights, hiring an Executive Director, and charging that person with implementation of policy, as well as managing the agency on a day-to-day basis.  The commissioners are also charged with the responsibility of approving all recommendations regarding case disposition at the Commission.  Because of the nature of the current statute, they do not and cannot be involved in the actual investigation of discrimination cases.  Those functions and duties are at the staff level.
