While Utah PTA supports adequate funding for federal and state housing programs that will increase the number of affordable housing units, we are also resolved to encourage the legislature to take all necessary steps to ensure stable and adequate funding mechanisms to properly facilitate the education of all students including but not limited to areas of high growth.
