The Eagle Summit is new to the Mosaic Conference. Designed for leaders in government, business, and diversity, the Summit will run concurrently with the morning of the general conference. The Eagle Summit agenda includes speakers, an award presentation,
and round table discussion designed to identify collaborative actions we can take
to make Iowa a welcoming state for diverse Iowans.

Sponsored by Friends of Iowa Civil Rights, Inc. ("Friends"), an independent non-profit corporation, Iowa's Mosaic Diversity Conference is the premier statewide training and networking opportunity for those interested in human diversity. It offers career development, professional and personal growth, and will provide all participants unique opportunities to learn more about the wealth of diversity that exists in Iowa and strategies to benefit from this diversity in their personal lives, work and communities. An exhibition hall will provide participants the chance to learn more about businesses, organizations, agencies and others who advocate, embrace, and provide products or services related to various aspects of diversity.

The Diversity Conference Committee would like to acknowledge Artist Andy Chenchar for his work on the Conference logo.

The Iowa Department of Human Rights (DHR) was established in 1986 as an umbrella agency to coordinate services relating to African American persons, Asian and Pacific Islander persons, Community Action Agencies, Criminal and Juvenile Justices Planning, Deaf and hard-of-hearing persons, Latino persons, Native Americans, Persons with Disabilities, and women and girls.

DHR works with all local, state, federal, and private partners to encourage cooperation and communication toward building a vibrant inclusive state where all Iowans can work, play, learn, and raise their families. DHR encourages citizen participation to define problems, formulate plans, and take action to improve race relations, to appreciate diversity, to fight discrimination, and to prevent hate crimes in Iowa. Action oriented programs and activities focus on subtopics such as business and economics, education, energy efficiency, healthcare, immigration, safe and inclusive communities, workforce development, and youth development.
