The County of Los Angeles is proud to host the 10^th Annual 2008 Multicultural Conference “Continuing the Journey – Adapting to Change in a Culturally Diverse Society,” which is diversity at its finest. The event will be held on May 15, 2008, at the Los Angeles Hilton Universal City Hotel.

   We invite you to be our partner as a sponsor/donator, and help us in strengthening diversity in the workplace and our communities. By donating an item to be placed into each and every bag that will be given to each participant at this conference, your organization/company will be recognized as committed to meet the challenge of building a community of mutual respect for differences. The Multicultural Conference outreaches to a diverse population encompassing the five Southern California Counties which include Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside and Ventura. In addition the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors have been invited to attend.

   This event is an effective vehicle to position your organization to network with hundreds of business professionals, community leaders, and private citizens throughout Southern California, which has a diverse population in excess of 10 million residents. These participants will have the opportunity to attend workshops, seminars and intercultural programs designed to develop awareness and cultural competence. Your product is exclusively to support the 2-day event. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact my sub-committee chair, Debra Myrick-Williams at (213) 974-9415.

We look forward to partnering with you in this exciting event.

Sincerely,

Mary Norman
