First, thank you to all those who have hung in there with us all these year and welcome to our new folks! I am excited about the wonderful work and conversations that Juneteenth has brought to our community but we all know that the conversation and action steps and accountability must continue. Our community continues to grow in diversity and its complexity is what makes our community unique and a great place to live. I would like to begin the planning process for this summer. I have already followed up on the requests from the previous wrap up meeting of last year's fantastic event. The group decided on June 25, 2016 and decided to go back to Mercer Park as it was a better fit with trees and grass for the little ones to play on and we missed the playground equipment which I just heard that they are putting up brand new equipment in the first time in a years. (YAY!) The day of the week that works best for me is Thursday until March when I am available on Wednesday evenings as well. We have meet in the past at 6pm. Our meetings are usually an hour or so and we try to leave with small assignments so that we can all carry the work forward. I am able to do this as a part of my job so we will get some things done during work day hours. Come with ideas for a theme so that we can get the save the date out as soon as we can. ( My idea: Future Focused) Also if you are not interested this year, please let me know!

We now ask the City Council of Iowa City to adopt the Resolution. Across the nation, other municipalities have passed similar resolutions. For example, cities such as Chicago, IL, Albany, NY, and Austin, TX have adopted resolutions recognizing freedom from domestic violence as a human right. It is time for Iowa City to join as a leader in this movement. We hope that this Resolution will raise awareness of domestic violence in the Iowa City community and inspire other communities to adopt similar measures. Members from the Legal Clinic and DVIP would like to attend the City Council's meeting on March 23, 2016 to briefly present this Resolution and respond to any questions or comments that the Council may have. The Johnson County Coalition Against Domestic Violence, the Johnson County Local Homeless Coordinating Board, the Consultation of Religious Communities, the University of Iowa Center for Human Rights, and the Iowa City Human Rights Commission have voiced their support and are co -sponsoring this Resolution. We very much hope the Council will choose to adopt this Resolution. If you need additional information, we would be more than happy to provide it. Thank you for your consideration.
