-This working group will develop proposals for implementing human rights legislation at the City and, later, County levels. We hope to devise a Blueprint for making Pittsburgh a human rights city in a meaningful way and a scorecard for holding city government accountable. This work involves creativity, research, outreach, and determination! Together we want to put teeth into Pittsburgh’s commitment to human rights to help leverage change in all policy areas and in city government operations.
