Stefanie,
Please forward to the Commission at your earliest convenience.
Thank you,

Dear Stefanie and Fellow Commissioners,
I am writing today to notify you of my resignation from the Iowa City Human Rights Commission. I
understand this decision will be a surprise, and it has been an especially difficult decision for me
considering how much I believe in this group's ability to be an agent of change. Indeed, I would not
have even anticipated writing this letter a couple months ago. My deep passion for our community,
human rights and social justice is often my guiding light and is what led me to apply for the
commission in the first place. However, while we have been living through such a transformative and
complex time collectively, I have had a lot of change and stress manifest in my personal life that has
needed a great deal of my care and attention. As I look ahead to the coming months, I have asked
myself if I truly feel I have the capacity to dedicate the time and honest thought to the work I would be
doing on the commission-- will I be able to commit the way I expect to and the way the commission
deserves? I have sat with this decision for several weeks now and I am confident that it is best for
me to step back at this time. 1 intend to stay abreast with the work being done from the commission
and the Office of Equity and Human Rights. I also would like to express how deeply I have
appreciated the relationships I have cultivated and the support I have received from the members of
this group. Of course, I will still be active in our community and I look forward to being a partner with
the commission and with each of you in the future.
With Sincere Gratitude,
Zachary Rochester
