Membership
Since 2003, the US Human Rights Network has worked to build and strengthen a people-centered human rights movement in the United States, one that is led by people most directly impacted by human rights violations. We remain at the forefront of shaping and growing a movement that includes grassroots organizations and individuals.
Our national network is made up of individual and organizational members that vary in size, focus, and scope of work. Organizational member groups are large, nationally-focused organizations, theme-specific organizations, multi-issue organizations, and small, community-based organizations working to address issues impacting their local communities. Together, we are able to come together, build strength in national and local human rights issues and develop shadow/stakeholder reports for civil society convenings.
