Home to 20,000, Duchesne County’s charm lies in its unspoiled wilderness, friendly communities, and the opportunity to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life. Gateway to the Uintah Basin, much of present-day Duchesne County was once part of the sprawling Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation. The High Uintas is dotted with some of the most beautiful alpine lakes anywhere in the West yet the county also has its share of serious concerns. Since grassroots is key to long-term societal change in the Bolder Way Forward Framework, the Duchesne County Coalition strives to bring the BWF message to every city, town, business, neighborhood, and family within the county. Since the “whole is greater than the sum of the parts,” the Coalition looks at who is currently doing the work in each spoke, or focus area, and what programs and efforts already support women and families in Duchesne County. The co-leads, Executive Leadership Team and members facilitate communication, resource sharing, and new initiatives or programs as needed and connect Duchesne County with statewide efforts. By lifting women and girls in our county, we lift all residents.
