Tuesday, June 27, 2023 - 3:04pm

You can make a difference in our community by applying to fill one of two vacancies on the Human Relations Council (HRC).

The online advisory board application is available through Monday, July 31, at http://bit.ly/TOWFAdvBoardApplication. Anyone without computer access is invited to complete the application by using a computer kiosk in the lobby of Town Hall, 301 S. Brooks St. Hard copies are available upon request by contacting Deputy Town Clerk Ella Dowtin at 919-435-9436 or [email protected].

The purpose of the HRC is to encourage understanding and goodwill between all Wake Forest citizens regardless of race, sex, religion, creed, nationality, or economic status, and thus promote the general welfare of the Town.

The HRC meets at 6 p.m. on the fourth Thursday of each month. Candidates will be expected to attend the August 24 HRC meeting to introduce themselves to current members and explain why they wish to serve. Following the interviews, the HRC will review its slate of candidates before submitting its recommendation to the BOC.

The selected applicants will volunteer for three-year terms. For more information, email Ella Dowtin at [email protected].
