Colleagues,
My calendar says it is spring, but I’m wondering what has happened! I have a number of Utah Women & Leadership Project (UWLP) announcements for April:
First, we are pleased to announce the release of a new research snapshot titled “Utah Women and Fertility: Trends and Changes from 1970–2021” (with Kaitlyn Pieper, Melinda Nagai Seager, and Dr. Robyn Blackburn). Additionally, we released a research and policy brief a few weeks ago titled “Safety First: The Health Implications of Social Belonging Among Utah Women” (with Dr. Lisa Diamond). Both are powerful reports. In addition, here are two new “What Can I Do?” idea sheets for Sevier County and Box Elder County (based on community gatherings). Thanks to everyone involved in these publications.
Second, we have two free UWLP events coming up, including one TODAY (RSVP online):
Third, we have a few new UWLP resources to highlight this month:
Fourth, here are some of our partners’ upcoming events:
Finally, check out some key articles and media published this past month:
Join us on the UWLP social media platforms: LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube. See the community calendar as well. Email uwlp@usu.edu to let us know you want to receive these updates to your own inbox if you received a forwarded email.
Enjoy April!

This research synopsis, in partnership with scholars from around the state, provides a collection of data points that move the conversation from individuals’ perceptions of Utah women’s experiences toward data-driven realities.

Women make up a significant proportion of the overall labor force in the state, but many are employed in low-paying jobs with limited room for advancement. This 2023 update includes female employment nationally and in Utah.
