SANTA ANA, Calif. (June 9, 2022) — In response to the 2020 surge of hate activity, the Orange County (OC) Board of Supervisors unanimously voted and approved a $1 million expansion program to help eradicate hate in the community. The outreach campaign, also known as Hate Hurts Us All, will launch with a free educational event available for in-person and virtual attendance. Hate Crime Prevention and Community-Based Organizations will be leading the conversation about hate activity trends in Orange County, its impact on BIPOC communities, and ways the public can join the movement to end hate.
