Celebrating 50 Years of the Tennessee Human Rights Commission

As the Tennessee Human Rights Commission celebrates 50 years of education and enforcement, we are taking a moment to reflect on how far we have come. From changes like our name, Commissioners and staff, to the powerful evolution of enforcement responsibilities and legislation, there is a lot of history for reflection. We invite you to join us during our Anniversary Year for many events, workshops and meetings. Through these meetings we hope to discuss the development of human rights over the past 50 years, share how the Commission impacts your life today and have a conversation about the Commission’s future. Please check back with us as we are adding new historical documents, events and other news often.
