About Us
Many organizations in our community are supporting diversity, however, we can progress more quickly and effectively by working more closely to better coordinate and integrate these efforts.
To spearhead this activity, Diversity Focus was proposed and then established in 2005 as a new entity to integrate and coordinate existing efforts as well as identify or create other activities and programs.
Diversity Focus is a non-profit organization devoted to enhancing the diversity of the Cedar Rapids-Iowa City area with the following goals:
- Communication - promote awareness and an image in the community that diversity is valued
- Information Clearinghouse - create a resource center that leverages the many products, capabilities and work of organizations supporting diversity
- Program Enhancement - advance new ideas and opportunities to build a more diverse community
