Leadership

Mosaic was established in early 2021 with the desire to provide educational opportunities throughout the region that raise awareness of inclusion, diversity, equity, accessibility, and belonging. These events, workshops, and sessions provide resources to employers and community members to expand knowledge, skills, and abilities to strengthen cultures of acceptance, inclusivity, respect, and collaboration. In 2022, Mosaic merged with YWCA Wausau.
