We are proud to be interviewing Erin Mendenhall, Salt Lake City Mayor, as our UNPHC Edx Learning Community Module for February 2020. To listen in; join us on the UNPHC YouTube channel or see your property manager for more details for your property’s watch party. The third Thursday; February 20th, and the following Saturday, Feb 22nd, all at 3pm. The module will also be posted on our website, and our Facebook page.

Recently elected Mayor Mendenhall is committed to hosting one on one sessions with citizens, to really understand concerns affecting those in the Salt Lake City community and beyond. She is a great advocate for those living in affordable housing and we look forward to hearing from her.

In any community, your vote is your voice, and becoming active in your community can be a great way to meet new people and be part of solutions.

Here are some easy tips, and websites on how to get a little more involved.
