This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. Circles Salt Lake has a mission to reduce poverty throughout Salt Lake County by building bridges of friendship and community. These connections support individuals and families on their journey from merely surviving to truly thriving. Executive Director and Regional Coach, Michelle Crawford, joins us with more.
Michelle Crawford:
At Circles Salt Lake, we believe no one should face poverty alone. We bring together people working to escape poverty and those eager to help, fostering real, supportive relationships that lead to lasting change.
Since 2017, we’ve been building a community where individuals don’t just make it through but truly flourish. It’s about self-sufficiency and, just as importantly, social capital. When people feel seen, heard and supported, they can achieve their goals.
We are proud to be a part of a statewide movement focused on lifting each other up.
Poverty isn’t just an individual problem; it’s a community challenge. Together, we can end it. By building bridges of friendship and support, Circles Salt Lake helps families progress toward long-term success and stability.
We are committed to providing the tools, resources and networks needed to help individuals and families achieve lasting economic stability.
