Utah Women and Education Initiative

Established to help increase the number of Utah women completing postsecondary education.

With a college education, Utah women are more likely to:

  1. realize their own potential for positive influence and contributions to the public and private good
  2. positively influence and contribute in family, societal, and work contexts
  3. more effectively contribute to local, social, and economic development of the state

The Utah Women & Education Initiative highlights the many remarkable women who are getting and/or using their education in various wonderful ways across our great state!

We are proud to showcase these women as they are role models and inspirations for everyone around them!
