The Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake and Housing Opportunities, Inc. are pleased to be able to offer housing participants Holiday Parties.

ON-SITE PARTIES:

Our agencies host on-site holiday parties to the residents of our eleven public housing communities and one property for people with severe disabilities. We host these parties in order build community at each of our sites and ensure that all of our residents, regardless of economic limitations, are able to participate in holiday festivities.

Nine of our public housing communities provide affordable housing for families. At each of these sites our Prevention Programs organize annual holiday parties for their youth participants and families. Last year the parties included a warm meal, cookie decorating, and a visit from Santa Claus and his helper Twinkle Toes the Elf. With the help of Intermountain Candy Club, Santa was able to give each child a small gift.

Our three communities serve seniors and people with disabilities. At each of these sites our Public Housing teams organize an annual holiday party for residents.

Last year the parties included a warm meal, caroling, and festive decorations. In addtion, through a generous grant from American Express Center for Community Development, residents also received a small gift that met a critical need.
