Residents prepare wreaths for annual Festival of Trees Intermountain Health Care, along with the Utah County Children's Justice Center and several others have joined forces to educate edu-cate health care providers, law enforcement officials and the community about sexual assault and how to identify it. On Nov. 22, law enforcement personnel, health care providers, school nurses and victims' advocates attended an all-day all-day seminar at the Provo Marriott Hotel and Conference Confer-ence Center geared toward developing sexual assault response teams throughout the state. The meeting wrapped up a week-long training for nurses in which nurses from across the state learned to become Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANE). As SANE nurses, they will be able to return to their communities and provide specialized services to victims, while collecting and preserving medical evidence evi-dence for law enforcement. "We are pleased to be a part of this training," said Kye Miner, director of Community Com-munity Outreach for IHC's Utah Valley region.

A pair of scissors is attached to the hanger and a visitor can cut off a piece of candy. Elaine said they got the idea from an aunt, Emily Sanderson, who traditionally brought the candy wreaths to her neighbors each year for Christmas. It always held a lot of memories for the Mattinson family, she said. Last year Elaine and Lisa with the help of several sever-al ward members made a Panda Tree in honor of Elaine's baby who died in September of 2000. The baby was born with four heart defects, the family thought he would make it but he did not live through the heart surgery. "I wouldn't trade that month for anything," Elaine said. Her husband said the workers at the hospital are angels they were so good to them all during the month. The staff all waited three hours after their shifts ended the day the baby died, they did not leave the hospital until we left. The sisters had such a good experience last year decorating their tree and meeting all the people who were donating a tree in honor of their loved one, they enjoyed hearing everyone's every-one's story. The Festival of Trees donations provide care for the needy at the Primary Children's Medical Center. It will be held Dec. 4 to 7 from 10 until 10 each day at the South Towne Expo Center Cen-ter in Sandy, Utah at 9575 South State Street. More than 600 decorated tree's of every size and shape and theme will be on display. There will be a gift boutique with all kinds of treasures, quilts, toys, Christmas decor and crafts.
