Utah Women encouraged To become involved more in politics & Business!

A new program (Women's Leadership Institute) which officially started a few months ago in May, has been kickstarted to help further along the progress in Utah regarding the implementation of more women primarily in political seats as well as in the role of business owner! The current CEO is a former Utah senator, Patricia Jones

Jones shares that only 16% of the Utah legislature is women. If you can believe it, this is actually worse than where Utah was 10 years ago. Back then, Utah was in alignment with the national average when it came to women in office. So why the backsliding? 

One answer might be that the current delegate system in Utah is primarily dominated by the male gender. The other explanation would be from a powerful resurfacing of ultra conservative political views. Whatever the exact reason is, it needs to be figured out as women truly are and must be treated as an equal...especially in Utah!

If you would like to personally learn more about the Women's Leadership Institute and/or become more involved (or if you know somebody that might be a good fit) you can contact them at their website: wilt.com
