Changemakers at University of Utah foster friendship between refugee and non-refugee students interested in understanding the issues facing newcomers in their schools and communities. We celebrate diversity through food, music, culture, art, and religion. We recognize the contributions of newcomers. We advocate for welcoming and equal opportunities on campus and in our broader communities.
