OUR STORY

We trace our roots back to 2004 and the relationships formed between University of Utah organizers and leaders from immigrant communities at the University Neighborhood Hartland Partnership Center. Fifteen years later the resulting collective continues to grow as we work together with new groups, as well as the original families and communities; expanding our reach by following leaders back to their home countries and countries of transition.  This work of transcending borders, now spans continents, as well as generations.
