Today I learned about a series of "Know Your Rights" brochures, available AT THIS LINK, provided by our Human Rights Office. The brochures are available in English, French, Arabic, Spanish and Chinese and cover these topics:
Unlawful Discrimination
Hate Crimes
Your Housing Rights and Rental Subsidies in Iowa City
Housing Discrimination
There are other resources, also available in multiple languages, AT THIS LINK including:
Council Resolution approving 2015 Equity Action Plan and the Five Areas of Focus
Resolution Reaffirming the Public Safety Function of Local Law Enforcement (printed copies are also available in the Library Lobby)
If you need help locating information about these and other topics, please call, stop in, or ask a question online (www.icpl.org/ask/).
