Every Parents Cares
To help parents who live in the Glendale area of Salt Lake City become better informed about local government, State Senator Luz Robles (D-SL) and State Representative David Litvak (D-SL), spoke to the parents in conjunction with Sutherland Institute’s Every Parent Cares program. The event was held at Mountain View Elementary on Wednesday evening, November 4, 2009, beginning with dinner for all participants donated by the Porcupine Pub & Grille and DoDo restaurants.

Sen. Robles and Rep. Litvak represent citizens living in the Glendale area of west Salt Lake City where Mountain View Elementary School is located.

Every Parent Cares is a parent-involvement program for families living in areas of low-income, including those with a higher minority population, and has been developed to empower parents with the ability to become more involved in their children’s education.
