Community Conversation on Racial Profiling
Meeting open to public in Olathe, Monday

Members of the Governor’s Task Force on Racial Profiling, a 15-member group appointed by Governor Kathleen Sebelius, will hold their regular monthly meeting on Monday afternoon, June 18 in Olathe. The business meeting at 2:45 PM will be followed at 5:00 PM by a town hall meeting, a “Community Conversation on Racial Profiling.”

Both events will take place at the Olathe City Hall, 100 E. Santa Fe, Olathe, and are open to the public.

This Town Hall meeting is the second in a series of meetings that will be conducted across the state of Kansas. The first meeting took place in Pittsburg on May 7. Task Force members will present information about the founding and function of the task force as well as responsibilities assigned through Kansas legislative action in 2005 and 2006. They will be available to answer questions and listen to the comments of the public. Public participation is encouraged.
