Creating change so more Utah women and girls can thrive.
About us
National and statewide studies show that women and girls in Utah are not thriving in critical areas. Utah continues to have high levels of domestic violence, sexual assault, child sexual abuse, and gender-based discrimination, while also ranking as the worst state for women’s equality and having low levels of women’s leadership representation. It is time for Utah to embrace A Bolder Way Forward (BWF), a systems-based approach to creating change faster and more effectively. Leaders across the state in 18 areas of focus are coming together to set bold goals for 2026 and 2030. We invite you to learn more and engage in this initiative. When we lift Utah girls and women, we lift all Utahns!

Be sure to take a look at Susan R. Madsen's guest opinion in the Deseret News today. She writes: "Men and women are different. No surprise there. But because there are so many differences, there need to be spaces, programs, centers and initiatives where those differences can be better served." #womensequity https://lnkd.in/g8iequFd

Working together, can protect Utah’s children from sexual abuse and its lasting impacts. To drive this vision, our spoke leaders and partners have established bold goals of changes we want to see by 2030 (with a checkpoint in 2026). We encourage you to become familiar with our spoke’s goals and get involved in corresponding efforts! Some of these goals include: - Passing public policies aligned with best practices and research shown to prevent and reduce child sexual abuse.* - Conducting at least two academic comprehensive studies about child sexual abuse in Utah by 2030. View our interactive dashboard to track our current status in these key areas, and the changes we want to see: https://lnkd.in/gUh2h-ar View all spoke goals: https://lnkd.in/get57vnC *The passing of Senate Bill 205, “Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Amendments” is an important milestone!
