The Center's Mission is to promote respect for human dignity and diversity through education and to foster our individual responsibility to work for justice and peace. We are the builders of the Idaho Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial, the only Anne Frank memorial in the United States.

The Center serves as a catalyst in forming strong, creative partnerships with schools, faith communities, business, and other human rights organizations. The Center provides leadership to the community through a collective voice that educates, inspires, and influences positive change regarding human rights and diversity. Through interactive educational programs, the Idaho Human Rights Education Center engages Idaho's children and educators in creating an environment where diversity is celebrated and human rights are protected against bigotry and discrimination.
