Salt Lake County Recorder

This year, Welcoming Week is a call to come together as individuals and groups – to celebrate our strengths and differences – and recognize that we’re at our best when We’re All In.

Welcoming Week provides individuals and organizations the opportunity to showcase their values through events and initiatives that foster connections and collaboration between immigrants and non-immigrants, as well as belonging for all.

Through Welcoming Week, organizations and communities bring together neighbors of all backgrounds to build strong connections and affirm the importance of welcoming and inclusive places in achieving collective prosperity.

Our offices will be closed Monday, September 2, in observance of the Labor Day holiday.

We have some hot days ahead of us. If you need a break from the heat, check out one of Salt Lake County's Cool Zones at libraries (open to everyone) and senior centers (for those 60+) across the valley.

Visit SLCo.to/zones to find a location near you.

Stay cool in air-conditioned comfort! Hydrate, take breaks, wear light clothing, and shift outdoor activities inside. Stay safe!

With the scorching heat of summer upon us, it's important to remember that heat can be deadly & know the symptoms of heat illness. It's crucial to take precautions.
Here are some quick tips to staying safe and beating the heat this week:
💧Hydrate
😎Seek shade and air-conditioned spaces whenever possible
☀️Limit your exposure in the sun and wear high SPF
🐶Check on your pets. Make sure they stay hydrated & have access to shade or a cool indoor space
👀Look before you lock! Never leave children or animals unattended in a vehicle

Happy🌎Day! Yesterday, Recorder's office staff joined other Salt Lake County Government staff, USU Extension - Salt Lake County and community members on a trail walk & litter clean up. It was great time spent with friends helping the earth be happy.

Employees at Salt Lake County's Recorder's office recently engaged in QPR su***de prevention training through the Healthy Lifestyles Program at the county. This initiative, part of Salt Lake County's broader wellness efforts, equips employees with skills to recognize and address signs of su***de risk.

The training, offered by Healthy Lifestyles, teaches the QPR method: Question, Persuade, Refer. Participants learn how to identify warning signs, approach at-risk individuals, and connect them with support resources.

Utah faces higher-than-average su***de rates in the nation, making such training critical. With access to resources like the QPR program, employees not only enhance their well-being but also contribute to a safer and more supportive workplace environment and broader communities.
