Elswerth Caviness* suggests the following M/SA improvements:
to CHAPTER 17 OFFENSES-MISCELLANEOUS- prohibiting unlawful discrimination in employment practices, housing practices, public accommodations practices, intimidation or bullying practices, reprisal or retaliation practices based on race, religion, color, sex, marital status, familial status, national origin, age, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, gender identity and source of income in the City of Kirkwood, Missouri.
The intention is to add more safeguards against unlawful intimidation or bullying and unlawful school practices.
to initiate mediation of complaints or potential complaints of unlawful discrimination in employment practices, fair housing code, public accommodations practices, intimidation or bullying practices, reprisal or retaliation practices based on race, religion, color, sex, marital status, familial status, national origin, age, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, gender identity and source of income for the City of Kirkwood, Missouri.
The new commission would have 15 members (including 14 adult members and one youth member of the community ) grandfathered in by each nominated by ten voting citizens not on a previous HRAAC member's nomination. Then appointed by the Mayor when confirmed by the Kirkwood City Council for a three-year term.

Kirkwood Learns Office
Department of HR Community Services
Do you, your group, your students, your school, your government office or service, your company or your business need an educator to help fill in the details of Human Rights and Relations, Diversity Training, Neighborhood Watch, Community Attitude, Anti-chill, or Customer Service the way the City of Kirkwood wants it for residents and all others? We know that it takes time and effort to turn around that little slightly negative feel in the air and we have a solution for you. We want to prevent a progression that leads our community downward. Keep us busy and we will teach what we know.
Barbara also works within all City departments including police to keep everyone trained and up to date in all HRAAC directions.

Kirkwood Cares Office
Customer Service Division
Department of HR Community Services
The City Of Kirkwood, Missouri, is committed to doing what is right for every citizen. If you got attitude from a cold City of Kirkwood employee, then let David know about it. He will get back to you the same day. You do not need to argue with the clerk, policeman, utility worker, city attorney, ..., a council member or the mayor. Just let Dave turn it around for you. David Deifsitas even knows employers around town and does not mind working on other situations where customer service was missing around the City of Kirkwood.
