Conservation Futures Project background
In 2018 the Conservation Futures Project engaged an expanded coalition of partners and forged a common vision and path forward for the land conservation community, ensuring perpetual stewardship of the state’s conserved private lands. That coalition came to be called Keep It Colorado, which was formally launched in January 2019.
The documents below were prepared during the Conservation Futures Project and give historical context to the evolution of Keep It Colorado.
