Our Programs

Since 1985, BCCIH, has sponsored an annual January celebration to promote a rededication to the ideals of Dr. King within our community. This year the celebration will be held on January 18, 2009, 3:00 p.m. at Bucks County Community College, Library Auditorium,  275 Swamp Road, Newtown, PA. 18940.

“Uniting to Fulfill the Dream – Yes We Can!”

 Refreshments will follow the celebration.

 Sponsored by the Bucks County Committee for Interracial Harmony and other religious and community organizations. For more information, call 215-968-8015.

The Bucks County Committee for Interracial Harmony provides speakers and materials to groups interested in promoting interracial, interreligious and intergroup harmony.

We form synergistic relationships and co-sponsor events and programs with organizations including the Bucks County Chapter N.A.A.C.P., The Peace Center, Interfaith Housing Committee, Bucks County Chapter Jack and Jill, Inc., C.A.A.R., Bucks County Coalition for African-American Concerns, and Bucks County Community College.

BCCIH presents interactive trainings in an open and relaxed format. These dialogues provide opportunities for communication and the development of more harmonious understandings amongst diverse ethnic groups. In 1994, members of Bucks County Committee for Interracial Harmony conducted the first "Institute for the Healing of Racism." Healing Racism Dialogues are offered throughout the community; call BCCIH at 215-579-1836 to receive additional information.

The long range goal of "Healing Racism Dialogues" is to empower the community to develop programs that are committed to dismantling racism.

The Healing Racism Dialogues are currently being reconstructed to accommodate the changing times and issues.
