Educational Achievement Community Change Council Identifies Seven Objectives

In order to open doors to education, United Way of Salt Lake and our community partners are working together. Our Educational Achievement Community Change Council and the Community Learning Centers are the result of extensive collaboration.

The Educational Achievement Community Change Council is chaired by Salt Lake County Mayor Peter Corroon and vice chaired by Steven Allnatt, director of public affairs for American Express. The council has 25 members, representing a mix of community members, issue experts and the diversity of stakeholders appropriate to the issue of educational achievement.
