The JBHA goals are to:

* Maintain the John Brown tannery site for public visitation

* Seek, document and preserve John Brown related artifacts and Information

* Dramatize the expansion of human freedom embodied in the antislavery movement and John Brown especially.

* Study and interpret early 19th century U.S. history as it relates to John Brown's life and times.
