Joe Bontke
Outreach & Education Manager
EEOC


Joe Bontke is Outreach and Education Coordinator for the Houston District office of the EEOC. Joe has been in the field of Human Resources & Civil Rights for the past 30 years and has experience in employment law and adult education. With a Bachelor's in Philosophy and a Master’s in Education, he has been a Human Resources Director, a Training Coordinator for the American Disabilities Act (ADA) Technical Assistance Center for Federal Region VI, he was appointed as Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and commissioned as an Honorary Admiral in the Texas Navy. Spending the majority of the year dealing with discrimination, harassment and retaliation in the workplace can take its toll. As the training officer for the District Office the wellbeing of his staff is an added concern of management and led to Bontke’s “side job” as a real bearded Santa Claus for 100+ events each December, Joe learned many years ago his red suit made life better.
