Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Jennifer Larson, Budget Director SUBJECT: Contracted Services Agreement — America's River Corporation DATE: July 12, 2018 Attached for City Council approval is the Contracted Services Agreement with America's River Corporation for Fiscal Year 2019. The adopted Fiscal Year 2019 operating budget reflects a payment of $10,000 to America's River Corporation, for financial assistance to cover operating expenses of that organization. The organization was established in 2003 by representatives from the Dubuque Area Chamber of Commerce, the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium along with the City of Dubuque, to serve as the organization responsible for promotion of the Port of Dubuque district. America's River Corporation utilizes these funds for the education of the Mississippi River, marketing and promotion of the Port of Dubuque, the development and coordination of special events located at the Port of Dubuque, and to assist in the economic development of the Port of Dubuque. The reporting requirements have changed as follows: 1. Progress reports will be submitted quarterly instead of monthly. 2. Quarterly reports will be submitted using a form on the City's website. 3. Quarterly reports will include equity and inclusion reporting. 4. Audit reports are due within 60 days of audit completion instead of 60 days after year-end. It is my recommendation that the City Council approves the attached Contracted Services Agreement with America's River Corporation and authorizes the Mayor to execute the contract on behalf of the City.

The City of Dubuque's team of Intercultural Facilitators offers two learning and development workshops for City employees and partner organizations: • A 10.5 hour foundations workshop that is designed for individual development and focuses on raising awareness, fostering improved understanding, and providing tools that can be used to build individual skill at navigating differences. • A 32 hour application workshop that is designed for teams who are interested in developing a plan for advancing equity and inclusion goals within their team or organization. Both workshops are grounded in an intercultural approach that is evidence informed and developmental. It is important to understand what our training is and is not: • First, the intercultural approach acknowledges race and racial issues but does not limit its focus to these issues. Rather, the focus is on culture as a broad concept that encompasses all people, and on the various aspects of cultural and social identities that may make a difference when we are interacting with one another. • Second, the goal is not to change beliefs or belief systems. The goal is to build skills so that people are effective interacting across cultural differences. • Third, the focus is on a broad set of skills that can be applied across cultures to improve communication and understanding. The training does not focus on culture specific details and information. • Fourth, although training employees can be a very productive tool, depending solely on training to foster acceptance and the skills needed to make sustainable change is severely limited. There must be sustainable efforts to support staff in applying newly acquired skills. We don't expect to be competent in a sport after a few practice sessions, similarly we cannot expect to be competent working with cultures other than our own after a few workshops. • Finally, there is a recognition that any skills learned must be applied in context, and that training is only one piece of a larger approach that includes assigning resources and developing a long-term strategy to identify barriers affecting certain groups and to create an inclusive and equitable work environment. 10.5 Hour Workshop: Intercultural Competence and Equity Objectives of the workshop are to: • Establish a common language and understanding regarding an intercultural approach to equity and inclusion • Reinforce the importance of continuing to develop the skills needed to work and live in a culturally diverse community 10 ri ir crry ror - Du8 UE , hiii'�tr��iete'u Ri�1Qiegi<dippf - . • Understand how we process diversity related information to form perceptions about ourselves and others • Examine some of the foundations of culture • Examine personal identity and its relationship to culture • Examine how language, non-verbal communication, and values can interfere with communication • Begin to unpack inclusion and equity issues in individual organizations using an intercultural approach • Understand employee roles in contributing towards an inclusive organizational culture 32-Hour Developing Equity Frameworks through Intercultural Methods This workshop is best suited for those working on teams seeking to advance equity and inclusion. Participants will use an intercultural framework to collectively explore individual, institutional, and systemic opportunities. The program includes opportunities for participants to practice using the tools they have received, working together to identify dilemmas facing their organizations, to develop strategies for addressing issues, and to create action items. Objectives for the four-day program are to: • Understand fundamental concepts related to an intercultural approach to inclusion and equity using individual, institutional, and structural levels • Learn tools and skills that can be applied to influence organizational change • Recognize inclusion and equity issues to advance action plans to stabilize equity and inclusion in the organization • Identify equity needs of your community through your organization's lens and set goals to influence a positive impact in the community • Identify inclusion and equity issues and begin to develop an action plan to advance equity and inclusion in participant organizations or groups • Create an all-encompassing environment based on trust for: o Effective team building o Healthy workforce culture o Active strategic planning 11 AC CERTIFICATE OF LIABILITY INSURANCE DATS/17/20$YY) THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED AS A MATTER OF INFORMATION ONLY AND CONFERS NO RIGHTS UPON THE CERTIFICATE HOLDER.
