Pittsburgh just launched an anti-bias coalition, but did you know there's an office that can help if you feel like you're being discriminated against? The Pittsburgh Commission on Human Relations has been around since before the Civil Rights Act, and their investigations into housing, employment, and other forms of discrimination yield real, enforceable results. Executive director Rachel Shepherd and deputy director Chris Soult join us to talk about their work and how you can tap into these free supports. Think you’ve experienced discrimination? You can submit an inquiry on the PghCHR portal, call their office at 412-255-2600, or email human.relations@pittsburghpa.gov.  Learn more about Stand for All, the city's new anti-hate, anti-bias coalition. **This episode originally aired on February 22, 2025.
