Community Outreach
Community outreach within the Parks, Recreation & Tourism department aims to foster positive connections between the University of Utah and the greater Salt Lake area. University of Utah students and faculty engage in meaningful community outreach opportunities, with hopes to give back to the community.
Camping in Color
Camping in Color provides outdoor experiences for Black youth and families to connect with nature in a supportive, culturally affirming environment. Founded by University of Utah graduates Sydney Murray and Hilary Lambert, the program aims to increase representation and engagement in the historically white-dominated outdoor recreation space.
