Vaccination is an important part of civic responsibility. Through vaccination our communities become healthier and vulnerable people are protected from serious illness. From COVID-19 and seasonal flu, to viral hepatitis (A and B) and monkeypox, vaccination is critically important to protect the health and well-being of our neighbors. Vaccinations help to prevent diseases and reduce the number of hospital beds needed for preventable diseases freeing up limited healthcare resources for other conditions.
Since 2020, we've partnered with local businesses through our Beer and a Shot and Book and a Shot events to provide vaccinations in a convenient and trusted setting. We've helped over 1,000 people get a flu or COVID shot.
The main objectives of Beer and A Shot are the following:
- Increase vaccination uptake among target populations.
- Provide accurate and actionable information about vaccinations to target populations.
- Create non-traditional community based partnerships to promote vaccination as a civic responsibility.
- Provide vaccinations in a non-threatening environment encouraging vaccinations in the future as well.
- Promote use of the Docket App to participants to understand current vaccination status and needs.

SLC Neighbors for More Neighbors
SLC Neighbors for More Neighbors advocates for equitable, sustainable, and thriving communities through housing that is accessible to all.
To achieve our mission, we’re working toward the four following goals for communities in Salt Lake City:
-
Ending Parking Mandates: Requiring parking mandates for housing leads to increased construction costs, reduced affordability, and encourages car dependency. By ending parking mandates, we can prioritize the efficient use of land, promote alternative transportation options, reduce housing costs, and create more vibrant, walkable communities.
-
Upzoning for Inclusive and Equitable Communities: To increase housing availability, communities need to host a diversity of housing types; but to diversify the supply of housing-types within a community, it is first necessary to diversify the size of the lots on which properties are allowed to be built.
- Inventory and Utilize Public Lands for More Housing: Public lands represent valuable assets that can be leveraged to address the housing crisis. By identifying and utilizing public lands for housing development, we can increase housing supply, promote affordable housing initiatives, and ensure that public resources are utilized for the benefit of the community, providing much-needed homes for residents.
