Bill H.38 proposes the creation of six full-time and two part-time positions within the Human Rights Commission to enhance its operational capacity. The new positions include a Communications and Outreach Coordinator, an Intake Specialist, three Staff Attorney Investigators, a Paralegal, a part-time Mediator, and a part-time Social Worker/Case Manager. To support these additions, the bill allocates funding from the General Fund for fiscal year 2026, which includes $25,000 for education and outreach activities, $794,616 for salaries and benefits, $18,000 for operating expenses and equipment, and $50,000 for additional office space.

The bill also specifies that it will take effect on July 1, 2025. This legislative initiative aims to strengthen the Human Rights Commission's ability to address human rights issues more effectively by expanding its workforce and resources.
