In June 2020, the Clark County Council adopted a resolution condemning racism in any form and committing to address it through intentional acts.

The council then joined with partner agencies YWCA Clark County, NAACP Vancouver, SW WA LULAC, and Clark County Volunteer Lawyers Program in three listening sessions to learn about how systemic racism has impacted residents of Clark County. 

Clark Vancouver TV recorded Sessions 1 and 2 on www.CVTV.org. Session 3 was not recorded. A summary of Session 3 without identifying details will be made available at a later date. 

Session 1: July 31 / 6-8 pm
Representatives from the four partner agencies shared information and background on the impacts of systemic racism in Clark County as it pertains to the people they serve.

Session 2: August 12 / 6-8 pm
Members of the public participated in a moderated session to share their experiences and answer the question, “How has systemic racism in Clark County impacted you?”

Session 3: August 26 / 6-8 pm
Members of the public who preferred to share their experiences anonymously joined in a moderated session to answer the question, “How has systemic racism in Clark County impacted you?”
