NOMA Utah Project Pipeline Summer Camp at Glendale Middle School, June 2023 NOMA Utah presentation on Creating an Inclusive Workplace Culture at AIA Utah Annual Conference 2022 Anyone in the design and construction industry is invited to become a NOMA Utah member — architects and allied professionals. We take a lot of pride in representing not just architects, but all the disciplines involved in our field. The current composition of the Utah Chapter is 40% Asian, 30% White, 15% Hispanic/Latino and the rest is made up of Middle Eastern, Black and Native American members. All NOMA Utah events are always open to everyone — one does not have to be a NOMA member to attend. We are encouraged by the strong showing of support by our design community for NOMA Utah in the past year, which underscores the need for an organization like NOMA that brings to the forefront the issues of the marginalized and the disenfranchised that continue to plague our industry. Our initiatives are made possible by our sponsors and our volunteers, for whom we are very grateful. We have another mentoring event planned for the fall in addition to a presentation on hiring international students at the AIA Utah fall conference. We are working on starting an ARE prep program to bring together licensure candidates and provide them with resources and support. We will keep working on improving our Project Pipeline camp as we understand the lessons learned from our first year. We will also continue to build partnerships with allied organizations on our mission to create a more inclusive and equitable architecture profession. 23
