KSL's Inside Sources

Women and community members are coming together this week to build four homes in Tooele County. It's part of the annual "Women Build" event by the local chapter of Habitat for Humanity. And in fact... it's actually the 50th anniversary of Habitat for Humanity! Chelsi Chant, Director of Marketing and Development at Habitat for Humanity Greater Salt Lake Area joins Inside Sources to talk about the work going on here in Utah.

Evidence over the past several decades shows that when women do better, society does better. But are we helping women to be successful... or are we adding more pressure to certain groups of women? This segment, Holly and Greg talk about working moms -- the ones who get up early and take care of the kids, just to go to work and take care of the adult children. Is society actually helping them so they can be most successful? Dr. Susan Madsen, founder and director of the Utah Women & Leadership Project shares her insights.

It probably feels like the never-ending story: congressional map redistricting. Things may have settled down here in Utah... for now, at least. But across the country, the recent ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court and primary wins for Trump-backed Republican candidates have many states looking to redo their maps. With just a few months to go, we're back to redrawing maps and pushing pause on primary elections.

A new depression therapy focuses on finding joy, not just eliminating sadness. And at Utah State University, a program aims to improve youth mental health by getting kid outside under the night sky. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, Inside Sources takes a look at some new treatments to help mental health. State Representative Steve Eliason also joins the program to share insights into youth suicide risks, and what parents can best do to help their children if they struggle with depression.

The Utah Judicial Commission will now launch an investigation into a leak regarding another investigation into state Supreme Court justice Diana Hagen over allegations of misconduct. This new investigation comes after their previous internal investigation was somehow leaked to the Utah State Legislature and then to the media. Greg breaks it down for listeners.

Among the many laws that just went into effect here in Utah is the law changing voter information privacy. Thanks to Senate Bill 153, only certain eligible voters can ask that certain personal information be withheld. But to do that, the voter had to request an "at-risk" designation… by yesterday. Weber County Clerk-Auditor Ricky Hatch joins to explain the changes and what to do it you missed the deadline.

Lieutenant Governor Diedre Henderson is reaffirming her belief that Utah's elections are secure. She sat down exclusively with KSL to share her thoughts on the continued questioning and attacking of our elections system. Greg and Holly hear her comments and share their own takes on the process. They also broaden out the conversation to discuss the balance between trust and distrust when it comes to the government.

A new national survey of nearly 6,500 Americans reveals that a majority felt the most fulfilled and satisfied with life… when they were 52. Greg and Holly are a bit more seasoned than that and don't agree with that idea. They share their thoughts and also wish KSL radio a special happy birthday!

Florence Nightingale, Clara Barton, and Mary Eliza Mahoney -- just three of millions of nurses over the hundreds of years of modern nursing. And today, we're celebrating them all. Becky Blair-Stevenson, associate executive director of the Utah Nurses Association, joins Inside Sources to discuss the challenges, successes, and needs of Utah's nurses.
