Program areas at Rup
Issue Advocacy - RUP continued to engage in organizing work in numerous communities in seven counties in rural southeastern Utah. Through this program, RUP organizers held thousands of non-partisan, issue-based conversations with voters to learn the most effective way to organize in underrepresented rural communities. RUP also advocated for and against various proposals that impact Utahs public lands.
Other work - Additionally, RUP conducted other organizing work across the places we organize - this included some elections-based work, such as meeting with and supporting candidates for public office, and made contributions to some candidates campaigns.
