About the Program
Next 100 Colorado launched its fourth cohort of its Mentorship Program starting in October 2024 and ending in April 2025, aimed at uplifting people of color who work, or were recently employed, in fields related to natural resources management, conservation, or outdoor recreation.
Vision - Mission - Goals
Since the Mentorship Program was designed in partnership with Justice Outside in 2020, we have had 30 mentors and 30 mentees go through this six-month program that aims to connect Colorado’s emerging and seasoned leaders of color. While each cohort is unique, they are all tied together by efforts to have our participants leave the program with a growing network, applicable life and career skills, and leadership capabilities. The program consists of a series of field trips, trainings, networking events, and one-on-one and small group opportunities and will culminate with a focused capstone project.
