About the Project
COLab’s mission is to foster “Better News for All Coloradans.” We do that three ways: Better News. More Trust. Faster Evolution.
We help the 150+ media outlets who’ve signed up as COLab partners to produce better news — that is, higher quality journalism that makes an impact in their communities — through collaboration, coaching and training.
It is our honor to highlight a sampling of the fantastic work from these newsrooms. Explore the full list of our partners here here.
