The Utah Children’s Outdoor Recreation and Education Grant (UCORE) provides high-quality, outdoor-focused learning experiences to youth ages 6-18 in Utah. This funding aims to teach youth the physical skills that can make outdoor recreation part of a healthy and active lifestyle. UCORE complements the state’s Every Kid Outdoors (EKO) Initiative and hopes to provide more opportunities so no child is left inside. Please review the 2024 UCORE Program Guide to learn what activities and expenses UCORE can help your program fund.
