NHLN Opinion+: Ahni Malachi

Executive Director of the Commission for Human Rights on high rate of disability discrimination complaints

Welcome to NHLN Opinion+, our new weekly program that is dedicated to discussing the concerns and opinions of New Hampshire’s Latino community!

This week we spoke to Ahni Malachi, Executive Director of the New Hampshire Commission for Human Rights, on how the Commission operates and protects individuals, the high rate of disability discrimination complaints, and the Governor’s new Commission on Law Enforcement Accountability, Community, and Transparency.   

Commissioner Malachi said that besides the current wave of awareness towards racial discrimination there has not been a specific uptick regarding ethnicity or race within registered complaints. The highest number of complaints has actually been related to disability discrimination. Employers or employees are always welcome to reach out to the Commission to learn more, ask questions, and better understand what the law stipulates regarding disability protections.
