AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
Action: Interim Appointments to Human Rights Commission
Meeting Date: July 18, 2005 Agenda Item Number: 3
Department: City Manager's Office Staff Contact: Mary Walston
www. eugene-or, gov Contact Telephone Number: 682-5406
ISSUE STATEMENT
This is an action item to make two interim appointments to the Human Rights Commission.
BACKGROUND
When needed, interim appointments to boards, committees and commissions are made outside of the
regular annual recruitment process. In the past two months, two members of the Human Rights
Commission submitted their resignations.
Interim appointments for vacancies on the Human Rights Commission, unlike other advisory bodies, are
outlined in the Eugene City Code. Section 2.270 states "the council shall appoint, within 90 days of the
position becoming vacant, a person to complete the member's unexpired term from the non-commission
members of the commission's standing committees."
Notice of the two vacancies on the Human Rights Commission was provided to all members of standing
committees of the commission who were eligible to serve on the commission. Five current members of
the commission subcommittees indicated a desire to be considered for the vacancies. One of the persons
who indicated an interest did not submit updated or additional information.
RELATED CITY POLICIES
No policy issues are related directly to consideration of this resolution.
COUNCIL OPTIONS
The City Council can appoint make two interim appointments from the list of persons or can extend the
recruitment for the two vacancies.
CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
The City Manager recommends making the selection for the two vacancies from the pool of five
applicants; no recommendation is offered on the specific candidates.

and ending on October 31, 2007.
Move to appoint to Position 10 on the Human Rights Commission for an

Revised SepL-wnber, 2001 - P.
Application For Appointment to Citizen Adviso Boards and
Commission
1. What experience, training, and/or qualifications do you have for this particular board or commission?
I have a B.A, in Sociology from the University of Oregon with a focus in Ethnic Studies. For the last six years I
have worked in the social service field. I work for Catholic Community Services in a contract with the Dept. of
Human Services to do home visits with clients receiving cash assistance (TANF/Temporary Assistance to Needy
Families). I have extensive experience working with vulnerable individuals and a families in our community.
These families are unemployed, sometimes homeless, and often dealing with mental health and/or substance
abuse issues. In addition, I continue to educate myseff in diversity related matters by continuously
attending and participating in trainings. These trainings are not required by my employer, in any way. This is my
own dedication to keep myself informed and educated. I myseff, have facilitated several trainings for the staff at
CCS and DHS in the area of Diversity training.
2. What specific contribution do you hope to make to the board or commission? Why do you want to
become a member?
I want to join the commission to help the already existing efforts they are making to educate the community on
Human Rights Issues and to help rid the city of the Institutional Racism that is still very prevelant. I am a single
mother of three Native and African American children. I have a teenage boy and twin elementary aged girls. As
much as Eugene would like to pride itseff as being, "diverse," the community has a long way to go. I see each
and every minute of every day the effects that institutional racism has on the education and quality of life issues of
children. These issues can affect who they become as citizens in our community. I fully support the efforts of the
commission in trying to open people's minds and make change through education and information. I believe each
and every community member should be protected in their rights to hold their own beliefs and opinions and it is
my intention to protect their rights. At the same time, it is also my intention to keep community members from
trying to impose their own beliefs and opinions on others. We all have the right to equal employment, equal
housing, and equal treatment in schools. I will do everything I can to help our community achieve these goals.
3. Briefly describe you involvement in relevant community groups and activities.
I am a current active member of the I-IRC's Education and Outreach Committee.
I served on the Lane County Human Rights Advisory Committee for the last year.
I was a member of the Department of Human Services Diversity Committee for 5 years, of which, I was the co-
chair for 1 year.
As I said earlier, I have conducted several diversity related training for my employer and fellow staff.
I have worked with my employer on our company's accreditation and have created Diversity guidelines that our
company now adheres to.
I have volunteered off and on for the last couple years at E1 Centro Latino Americano and continue to stay involved
as much as I can in their efforts.

Human Rights Commission
Supplemental Questionnaire
Summer 2004
Name: Christina
Greening
Please respond to the following supplemental questions, specific to the Human Rights
Commission, and include with your application. If you choose to answer the questions on a
separate sheet of paper, please remember to include your name.
1. What do you see as the role of a Human Rights Commissioner?
The role of the Human Rights Commissioner in Eugene is very vital to the essence of our
community. The focus and resources available to this commission are an example of
how dedicated City leadership is to confronting Human Rights violations head on, and to
providing continuous educational and informational opportunities. Thus, creating a
community in Eugene that respects and celebrates all of its citizens.
The role of a commissioner is to represent the citizens of Eugene and to voice the
concerns of the citizens to the City Council. In addition, it is the role of the commissioner
to provide educational and informational opportunities not to just city employees, but to
Eugene, as a whole. Citizens in Eugene look to the commission to help when their
human rights have been violated and they need help with a resolution, they look to the
commission to help the community get together around issues, for example, the Martin
Luther King, Jr. Celebration or the naming of the Cesar Chavez School.
My commitment to the citizens of Eugene is to allow every one to voice their
concerns/issues and to actually listen to and hear what they are saying. I will in turn let
the fellow commissioners know of the concerns/issues out there in the community so that
we may collectively be aware of and if need be deal with a particular situations/s. I am
also committed, to be an active member in the commission, by attending every meeting
and by continuously educating myself in diversity related issues. I currently am an active
member of the Education and Outreach Committee and would continue on with my
participation on that committee, as well.
2. What three major issues do you identify as facing the community of Eugene over the next
20 years? ,
One of the most emerging issues is the large increase in Eugene's Latino population.
Eugene is going to have be ready to make the needed changes to make Eugene
accessible to the ever growing number of Spanish speaking residents. We will need to
make public services and facilities accessible to Spanish speakers. We will need to work
to gain employers in Eugene to sustain the employment needs to Spanish speaking
workers and we will need to be prepared to protect their rights in our community.
Another issue Eugene will face is the constant struggle our underprivileged citizens have
in getting needed services and housing. Social services locally and na~onally have been
and will continue to face drastic cuts. This creates a larger homeless population, increase
in unemployment, hunger, and an increase in crime and drug use. Eugene will have to
work together as a community and with local non-profits to combat these issues at the
local level. VVe can help to support after-school programs to provide care for working
parents and to help keep kids out of crime and off of drugs in those critical after school
hours. We can support our local food banks and help them to grow so that we can supply
citizens with the most basic need, FOOD. VVe can support local agencies that help
citizens gain employment and we can support new businesses coming into the area that
would provide needed employment. Finally, we can all work together to gain more Iow-
income and affordable housing for the residents of Eugene.
Finally, the last but not least is the continuous debate in the community over the
protection of the human rights of all the residents in Eugene. For the past several years,
gender identity has been a very hot issue; we need to not let this issue be on the back
burner any longer. VVe need to face that and all of the other extremely vital concerns of
the community. The work to protect human rights can never be successful if people think
we can have an issue deal with and be done. The only true way to be successful is to
realize that this type of work is continuous and on-going, to face an issue and find a
solution is great but the work to create a community inviting and accessible to all of its
residents is constant and changing.
3. Members Of the Human Rights Commission represent the diversity of Eugene. Please
describe your strengths and weakness related to group dynamics within a diverse group.
First of all, I am a very dedicated member of this community. I have been involved in many
community activities and organizations, not for any employment reasons but just because
that is where my abilities can be best utilized. I am a graduate of the University o~ Oregon,
with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and a minor in Ethnic Studies. I have served as co-chair
of the Department of Human Services, District 5, Diversity Committee (I was a member for 5
years). I am a current member of the Education and Outreach Committee for the EHRC and
I was a member of the Lane County Human Rights Advisory Committee. I also helped to
create the guidelines and training material regarding diversity for my employer and currently
serve on the diversity committee for Catholic Community Services. I feel that one of my
greatest strengths is my ability to listen to needs and opinions of others and work to help
them even if I do not agree (personally) with them. It is one of my strongest beliefs that each
and every person has the right to believe in whatever they want, as long as they respect the
rights of everyone else. I work very well in a team due to this, and am able to get the group
focused on the task at hand. I think it is vital for our commission to represent the needs of all
our community members with that we need to make sure that each member is willing to
represent and defend the different views and needs of all the members in our community. I
believe working together we can achieve much more and in that vein, believe that working
together in a team is not only vital to coming up with well thought out solutions to
problems/issues facing our community but also to combating those issues. Change can
happen much faster, the more people you have to create that change.
I would have to say that my weakness is in that I get frustrated when I can't do it all. So, I
have already been trying to fix that by just being involved in the items that I know I will be
best suited for. For example, in E&O, we don't put anything on the work plan without a
name attached. I am only currently involving myself in things that I know I have the time and
commitment to be able to support 100%.
