Acknowledging and respecting these experiences is crucial for fostering understanding and support within our communities. In recognition of BIPOC Mental Health Month, we highlight resources available in Utah. The Utah Center for Evidence-Based Treatment offers a comprehensive list of BIPOC mental health resources.

Park City High School student Isabella Escobar and her uncle created this design for Youth United's T-Shirt Contest! 🏆️👕 Isabella has been in Youth United programs since she was a little kid, as her mom would enroll her in summer camp programs the initiative made accessible to them. She’s also volunteered at and translated for some of Youth United’s events too. 💞 “The events put on by Youth United has helped me find new opportunities for my younger sister and connect with different people in the community,” Isabella said. Lots of people rocked the new t-shirts at the Fourth of July Parade while walking with Park City Community Foundation. 🙌🏽 ✨️ 🔗 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ezFdnaTS

🎓🌟 Congratulations to Jessica on her high school graduation! For the past three years, Jessica has been an invaluable intern at Park City Community Foundation, where she shadowed various office roles, performed clerical duties, translated marketing materials into Spanish, and supported community events. Jessica is proud of her friendships and connections in high school, finding a strong support system that motivated her. A highlight of her internship was attending the Solomon Fund (now Youth United) events, where she saw firsthand the impact of our work on families and kids. Starting as a volunteer and evolving into an intern, she loved helping by translating, handing out flyers, and witnessing the collective effort of staff, donors, and the community. This fall, Jessica will attend the University of Utah, exploring majors in Business, International Studies, and Computer Science. She plans to stay involved in her community and continue making a positive impact. Jessica, your passion, work ethic, and dedication have been truly inspiring. Thank you for everything, and best of luck at the University of Utah! 🌟📚 #Congratulations #ThankYou
