"I believe that my life’s work is to help people better understand the issues that affect them. In the process, I gain a better understanding of these issues too. As a result, we can all make more informed decisions when voting, we can have better conversations with our families, and we can more clearly understand how our work fits into the policy landscape." -Shawn Teigen
Shawn has been involved with the Governmental Research Association since he started working with the Utah Foundation over a decade ago. Read more about the impact of the GRA here: https://graonline.org/the-value-of-the-gra-opinion-from-gra-president/
