Boulder County is seeking your ideas as to how to help residents, workers, and business build assets, strength and resilience to withstand future impacts. Please take 5 minutes complete this survey and share it with your clients and coworkers!

Help us create an equitable recovery!
The Youth Transportation Program just released a guide to explore options to get around Boulder County! Families can use the guide as a checklist to explore ways to get to school, work, friends' and family members' homes or anywhere you want to go.
Check out DRMAC's new video about the Getting There Travel Training Workshop!
Last month, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) proposed new transportation pollution reduction standards to help reduce pollutions and greenhouse gas emissions. The proposal will shape how state and local governments make plans for future projects to make sure there are more travel options and the infrastructures supports cleaner air.
CDOT is accepting written comments on the draft rule through Oct. 15. All written comments should be submitted to dot_rules@state.co.us before 5 p.m.

Monique utilizes storytelling and participatory art-making to engage communities in the planning process in order to dismantle unjust systems and co-develop equitable communities.
