About Us
UHEART was formed in 2023 when people working at the overlap of environmental change and public health in Utah recognized the need for greater collaboration and awareness. Today, UHEART meets monthly to build connections, share knowledge, and work together to address some of Utah's most pressing environmental and public health challenges.
