Abstract
In the Spring of 2004, the Iowa legislature passed the bill to establish the Commission on the Status of Iowans of Asian and Pacific Islander Heritage (CAPI) within the Department of Human Rights. Nine (9) commissioners were appointed by the Governor in October. In August 2006, the first division administrator was appointed; thus the Division was established. The duties of the Commission, as established in Iowa Code Chapter 216A.152, define the work of the Division. Vision: All Iowans live up to their potential, regardless of ethnicity, station in life, and religion. Mission: To empower Asians and Pacific Islanders, improve their well-being, and celebrate a diverse Iowa.
