We stand up and show up as passionate women who deeply value equality, justice, and human rights. We are especially impacted by these issues and our voices will be heard as we develop and implement solutions for Iowa’s multiethnic, and multicultural communities both rural and urban.
Vision Statement: Consistent with Iowans inclusive history, we work towards creating an environment that encourages education and solidarity, fosters understanding and self-empowerment of marginalized groups.
