The Leadership Council for Human Rights (LCHR) seeks to encourage and promote information and action campaigns on the behalf of ethnic and religious persecuted peoples, providing assistance to organizations and individuals under threat. Our goal is reach out to groups and individuals to educate, communicate, train and increase effectiveness on human rights issues by bringing together disparate individuals and groups in a more inclusive, informed and effective manner.  Our philosophy, "feet in the mud, head in the sky," means that we are committed to working on the ground with real people, and to bringing their voices and the stories of their struggles to decision makers in Washington, DC.  We aim to cast a bright light on injustices cloaked in darkness through coalition building within the human rights community.  LCHR's projects are as varied as the individual groups we seek to serve.
