“In partnership with Pathways to Resilience, every state can work to provide supportive environments to help children and families thrive — and learn from one another’s best and promising practices.”

Abby Cox is the First Lady of Utah and a member of the Pathways to Resilience Steering Committee — a group of seven Governors’ First Spouses who are champions for trauma-responsive policies and programs within their states and across the country. 

In this video spotlight, Ms. Cox shares how her initiative, Show Up Utah, is promoting human kindness, empathy and belonging through actionable experience and resources for Utahns. By bringing together volunteers, families, nonprofits, community leaders, and businesses, Show Up Utah is working to deepen human kindness and the ability to connect. Emphasizing the role of positive experiences and relationships in supporting healing is also a key component of the Pathways to Resilience mission.
