Division

ICHRA, a pivotal engine within UNITED SIKHS, is dedicated to advancing the organization’s civil and human rights mission. We are engaged in strategic litigation, trial observation, legislative reform, and policy advocacy in order to ensure equality, fairness, and human dignity as rooted in Sikh tradition. We also engage in building the cultural competence of federal and State government agencies. In its pursuit of these goals, ICHRA represents Sikhs’ voices before Federal and State governmental agencies in North America and Intergovernmental organizations internationally. ICHRA also conducts its flagship project that produces periodic and annual civil rights reports assessing the conditions of Sikhs globally.

ICHRA actively collaborates with and represents Sikh organizations in town halls, campaigns, and advocacy projects. Through these multifaceted efforts, ICHRA strives to effect positive change and safeguard the rights of Sikhs on a local, national and global scale.
