The Community Relations Commission (CRC) is dedicated to improving the quality of life in Goshen by creating programs and initiatives that benefit all community members. The Commission is committed to establishing a city free from racism and discrimination. It fosters strong bonds among residents and within neighborhoods, addresses complex issues, advocates for health, safety, and wellness, and encourages respectful interactions among Goshen's diverse population.
Nine volunteer Commissioners appointed by the City Council and the Mayor serve on the board. Members include a broad range of representatives who share the vision of a unified, thriving Goshen.
Mayor Leichty's office champions our Community Relations efforts, dedicating multiple staff roles to enhance the work of the Community Relations Commission (CRC). Michael Wanbaugh leads the team as the Director of Administrative Affairs and oversees the operations of the Mayor's office, including the activities of the CRC.
Michael Wanbaugh is the point person for community engagement as the Community Relations Manager, his focus being on providing direct support to citizens, planning events, broadening community outreach, and handling written communications.
The CRC engaged the community to identify the following vision and guiding principles.
In the true spirit of being a community-focused organization, the CRC has embarked on a long-term process of inviting others to interact with, endorse, and adopt these principles as their own.
In 2004, then-Mayor Alan Kauffman and the City Council had the foresight to establish the CRC for the purpose of fostering a climate of positive community relations, non-discrimination, and equal opportunity within and throughout all of Goshen. The Commission was created with the passage of Ordinance 4201 and amended in 2006 by Ordinance 4339 and again in 2009 by Ordinance 4526,
This initiative is aimed at inspiring creativity and enhancing the quality of place in Elkhart County! We’re on a mission to help residents love where they live by unleashing innovative ideas that can transform our communities. This inclusive program invites anyone anyone who cares about where they live to submit their ideas—whether you’ve spotted a fantastic concept in New York, Shanghai, or even Kokomo, let’s test it!
