Named after the Paiute tribe of Native Americans, Piute County is unique due being one of the smallest counties in the state, both in terms of population and area. Because grassroots is key to long-term societal change in the Bolder Way Forward Framework, the Piute 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 Piute county. The co-leads, Executive Leadership Team and members facilitate communication, resource sharing, and new initiatives or programs as needed and connect Piute County with statewide efforts. By lifting women and girls in our county, we lift all residents. To learn more about what you can do to strengthen the impact of girls and women in Piute County, read the "What Can I Do?" report
