Intercultural
Relations Coordinator
Cultural Diversity Calendar
of Events
The Intercultural Relations Coordinator (IRC) position was
established in 1997 by the Appleton Police Department to proactively
address issues in the community that affected the minority
populations.
IRC
will establish effective relations with members of the minority
communities, will develop and coordinate cultural diversity training
programs both internally and externally, and will aid in the
recruitment and retention of qualified minority candidates.
IRC
works with minority community advisory committees. The
advisory committees are comprised of leaders of the minority
community who volunteer their time by providing guidance and
direction in addressing issues important to the
community. The
different advisory committees work jointly and provide for an open
forum where discussion of issues takes place.
The City of Appleton will
aggressively address issues that are identified as highest priority
by the minority communities.
IRC
is affiliated with several diversity organizations in the community.
IRC continues to build relationships and strengthen those already
established with service oriented organizations which target the
minority populations.
