Unity Commission

ncrease opportunities for communities to learn and grow together. By partnering with community members and stakeholders, two citizen-based commissions, a youth advisory group, and internal staff, we provide proactive and reactive support to accomplish the city's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (D.E.I.) This department is the home of two citizen-based commissions: Citizens' Unity Commission (CUC) and Citizens' Engagement Advisory and Review Commission (CEARC). The CUC is the "proactive arm" of the department and was created to promote and sponsor activities, events, and initiatives that bring diverse citizens together and increase awareness and education on diversity-related topics. The CEARC is the "reactive arm" of the department and was created as an advisory body of the Hampton City Council, to provide crisis prevention, management, and communication in the event that a divisive crisis occurs in the City of Hampton.
