Agriculture plays a vital role in all of our lives in that we all eat. However, only 1% of our population are involved in the production of our food and management of our natural resources. Agriculture faces an uphill battle when it comes to representation in advocating for producing our nation's food supply and representing our rural communities. 

Your gift today will help fund leadership development and advocacy training for diverse men and women dedicated to the vision and commitment to lead change and ensure the sustainability of Colorado's agricultural economies and rural communities. 

Will you donate today and directly support this two-year leadership program that develops and enhances leadership capabilities of men and women dedicated to ensuring our nation's security through food and energy production and agricultural sustainability?

Mission

Developing leaders that will become a strong, unified voice for agricultural issues.

Background Statement

Committed to investing in human capital, major companies have spent millions of dollars in leadership development. Although these companies have been developing leaders at an ever-increasing speed, the call to create and nurture the leadership skills of agricultural and rural individuals has largely been unheard.

Answering this call, the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Program (CALP) develops and enhances the leadership capabilities of diverse men and women committed to the future of Colorado’s agricultural and rural communities.

Coaxing a living from the land, providing rural community products and services, agricultural and rural people have significantly contributed to Colorado’s tapestry. CALP enriches this culture through a hands-on, interactive program dedicated to producing graduates with the vision and commitment to lead change and ensure the sustainability of Colorado’s agricultural economies and rural communities.
