Colorado Issues Institute

Description

I’ve recently started an independent,
nonpartisan local issues non-profit entity. Its purpose is to focus on local and
state issues in Colorado through research, education, and publishing. The
overarching purpose is to inform, motivate, and empower people about local
issues, to boost civic and political engagement and to facilitate and strengthen
meaningful connections of citizens to community, effecting a positive difference
in the lives of residents and communities.
I’ve formed the shell and beginnings of
these functions as the Colorado Issues Institute, the Colorado Issues Research
Center, the Colorado Issues Digest, and the Colorado Issues Journal, each with
their own websites and a unifying Colorado Issues Web portal.
It’s obviously an ambitious concept that
cannot be fully realized by one person alone--I’ve created the framework and
partial, inaugural content, but will need much help in the form of volunteer
work and financial support from those who share my vision.
