The Human Rights Center (HRC) is a cultural center of Knox College. It is located on the Knox campus in Galesburg, Illinois at 422 S. Academy St., near the corner of Academy and Berrien (see campus map).

The HRC provides an outlet for progressive thought, open-minded discussions, and human rights activism. The center is open to all members of the Knox community and strives to interact with the Galesburg community.

Designated as a "safe zone", the HRC is open to anyone seeking a safe space to discuss and explore personal issues and views. The HRC clubs address human rights and social justice concerns with an emphasis on educating the Knox community through encouraging and demonstrating activism.

Individuals from each club come together to form the HRC task force which addresses issues concerning the cultural center as a whole.  The HRC is a co-operative; clubs work together through supporting each other's programs.
