Starting this month, Inclusive Cultural University (ICU) is partnering with GreenState Credit Union to begin the Campaign of Consciousness – Iowa City.
ICU workshops will take place with surrounding Iowa City law enforcement agencies, University of Iowa student-athletes and interested citizens of the Iowa City community, according to a news release. Participating law enforcement agencies include the Coralville, Iowa City, University Heights, North Liberty and University of Iowa police departments and the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office.
The ICU vision is founded on the message “I see you, I respect you, I acknowledge you” and locating the individuals, schools, organizations, corporations and law enforcement institutions that connect with this lifestyle. The ICU “eye” is the emblem being positioned as the universal symbol of respect. ICU has already anchored with ten Iowa police agencies.
“When meeting with the ICU team Jon and Del Marion, we immediately felt energized by the passion and unity they embody,” said GreenState public relations director Tara Wachendorf. “Inclusive Cultural University is truly about bringing people together, understanding where we have come from and working toward a common goal of respect.”
“The Inclusive Cultural University was built to directly address issues that have plagued our society. Improving relationship between the community and law enforcement is huge,” added Jonnell Marion, founder and president of ICU. “We need to be proactive in reinforcing value and respect for one another. This will be the blueprint on how to reach solutions for our country.”
