Description
Please join the South Valley Chamber and United Way of Salt Lake to learn more about how to be active advocates on the issues that impact Utah's kids and families.
We will review best practices for engaging your legislators throughout the session and raising awareness in your community. You’ll hear from local policy experts and receive additional information on how to use advocacy resources. We will also dedicate 30 minutes after presentations for an optional Q&A session.
