Hello, Downtown!

The recent marathon, volleyball tournament, and spring conference brought hundreds of thousands of visitors to Salt Lake from all over the country! That visitation helped drive a a 33 percent reduction in calls for service in April. Clean, vibrant streets = safety!

Thank you, Ambassadors for keeping Downtown clean and safe!

You'll want to say 'Hello!' if you see Becca. Not only is she one of our longest serving Downtown Ambassadors, she's worked her way into a supervisory role. "I have immense respect for what our teams do on the streets: cleaning, giving directions, and helping the unsheltered. It can be exhausting and hazardous, but it's also deeply rewarding. I love my job and what we get to do."
Congratulations on being our Ambassador of the Month, Becca! You truly deserve this award for making downtown Salt Lake so inviting and vibrant!
