Tooele County

Tooele County is unique not only due to our name, but also due to being a land of ancient settlements, pioneers, missiles, race cars, and one of the fastest-growing counties in the state. Because grassroots engagement is key to making long-term societal change in the initiative A Bolder Way Forward (BWF), the Tooele County Coalition amplifies research-based efforts and brings the BWF message to every city, town, business, neighborhood, and family.  The County Coalition is part of the BWF Northwest Regional Coalition including Tooele, Cache, Box Elder, and Rich Counties. Since the “whole is greater than the sum of the parts,” we look at individuals and organizations currently doing the work in each area of focus (spoke) and elevate existing efforts. By lifting women and girls, we lift all residents.

When we understand the data, in addition to listening and responding to concerns regarding the needs of girls and women in Tooele County, we will be better able to change harmful or ineffective policies and programs, continue effective action, support effective leaders, identify and solve local problems, and create responsive initiatives for Utah families.
