President Lyndon B. Johnson appointed Stanford Brookshire to the National Citizens Committee For Community Relations in 1964 to augment the work of the Community Relations Service established by the Civil Rights Bill. Brookshire served as a member of the United States Conference of Mayors Committee On Community Relations, which was formed in 1963 to implement the organization's policy objective of easing intergroup tension in the nation's cities.
