A recent CoastTV News feature spotlights Patty Maloney, president of Speak Out Against Hate (SOAH), and the organization’s growing impact across Sussex County.

Watch the newscast here: https://shorturl.at/p6PB1

The segment emphasizes SOAH’s mission to reduce hate and foster understanding through community-driven initiatives like public forums, school partnerships, and its visible “Hate Has No Home Here” campaign.

Maloney highlights the importance of courage and compassion in addressing hate, noting that meaningful change comes from people “standing up” and working together.

The organization also collaborates with local schools and youth, helping implement programs that address bias and bullying while investing in the next generation through internships and scholarships.

Overall, the coverage underscores SOAH’s core message: building connection, promoting hope, and creating lasting change through consistent community engagement.

SOAH’s mission remains centered on persistence and hope. This Ties That Bind Us is sponsored by Matt The Carpet Guy.
