Info

❖ Though Utah as a whole is conservative, it is also very inclusive. The 2010 Census ranked Salt Lake City No. 3 for gay-couple households in mid-sized U.S. cities. One of the state’s largest and most well attended annual events is the Utah Pride Festival, highlighted by the Gay Pride Parade (pictured here).

❖ Brandie Balken, Equality Utah executive director. High school is where Brandie Balken first began to develop her penchant for advocacy. Homelessness, food insecurity and the environment where among her early causes. Then in 1996 Balken moved to Salt Lake City and began to shift her focus to LGBT issues. Now, as executive director for Equality Utah, one of the state’s most well-known and respected human rights organizations, Balken spends her days working to achieve full equality for all Utahns regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Equality Utah is currently focusing on employment and housing non-discrimination, at both the local and state levels, as well as bullying prevention and relationship recognition. “Salt Lake is a wonderful place to live, and leads the state in fair treatment of LGBT residents. I think people are drawn to Salt Lake City because it has a rich and vibrant culture and is ever increasing in diversity. People are often surprised at how large and active the gay and transgender community is here. While Utah is a very conservative state, Salt Lake is definitely a progressive city,” Balken says.
