Andy Duffelmeyer and Rob Poggenklass, specialists at the Iowa Civil Rights Commission, will provide information about how civil rights laws protect people from discrimination in everyday life. Whether you’re looking for a job, an apartment, a loan, or an education, you have a right to be free from discrimination. Discrimination comes in many forms: race, color, national origin, sex, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, and gender identity. The Iowa Civil Rights Act protects you against all these forms of discrimination. This presentation will focus on your right to be free from discrimination in Iowa and throughout the country. Find out what the Iowa Civil Rights Act and other civil rights laws can do for you.
