The Board of Directors and staff of Conflict Resolution Center would like to offer its sincerest condolences to the family and loved ones of George Floyd, who was killed at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department. We would also like to express our anger, anxiety and grief that our communities in Minnesota and in the nation are feeling. The video footage of the tragic death of Mr. Floyd and the subsequent protest activity have reminded us of the deep-seated racial and social disparities that continue to exist in our community.

CRC is committed to taking steps to eliminate the repeat of events like this in our society and committed to investing in substantive change in our organization and the communities we serve to address racial inequities and social justice. Change has to start today, and it needs to start with each of us.
