Strengthening family connections and relationships

Family... isn't it about time? Long-time Utahns might remember those old commercials that aired on TV and radio that encouraged people to spend more time with their families. This week, the State of Utah is actually focusing on the same kind of thing: connecting with families. And we've got a special hour looking closer at families here on Inside Sources. 

Director of the Utah Office of Families Aimee Winder Newton kicks off our special coverage with a discussion on the state's Family Connection Week and how families can better strengthen their own relationships. The program then shifts gears to look at various kinds of families. Dan Carlson, Associate Professor of Family and Consumer Studies at the University of Utah, joins to discuss multigenerational families and how different cultures define the term "family." Founder of the Single Parent Project, Meghann Brimhall, finishes our special hour with a closer look at single-parent families, as well as blended families.

The all-new Inside Sources. Hosted by Greg Skordas and Dr. Holly Richardson, two well-known voices in Utah’s legal and political circles.
