The Lawyers’ Committee’s 1-844-9-NO-HATE Resource Hotline (1-844-966-4283) serves as a resource for organizations and individuals working to combat hate in their respective communities. Trained staff and volunteers will provide legal information about hate incidents and crimes, and provide callers with general information about reporting, as well as the kinds of legal remedies that may be available in different states. The project connects people with these resources by leveraging the pre-existing relationships with state and local groups that the Lawyers’ Committee has built through decades of legal and organizing work in its other project areas.
In addition to responding to requests for legal and social services resources from organizations, the 1-844-9-NO-HATE resource hotline helps to build an accurate public record of these incidents.
