The MPAC Hate Crimes Prevention Department has three main focuses:
- Victim Assistance: By fielding calls through our 24-hour toll-free hotline (800-898-3558) and our direct line, MPAC guides victims of hate acts and discrimination to the appropriate resource (i.e., Medical Care, Legal Consultation, Counseling, etc).
- Advocacy: An extension of victim assistance is advocacy, such as contacting law enforcement to advocate that applicable cases be pursued as hate-motivated crimes and supporting bills that benefit victims.
- Hate Prevention: As a tool of prevention, MPAC strives to educate the community about hate acts and the issues surrounding hate and racism.
Outreach and Educational efforts include:
- Holding educational forums and workshops
- Encouraging hate crime/incident reporting
- Training law enforcement
- Fostering community-police partnership
- Delivering Muslim cultural sensitivity trainings
- Educating the media
- Developing & distributing educational tools
