Trust for Public Land - Colorado

A nonprofit organization

Trust for Public Land (TPL) creates parks and protects land for people, ensuring healthy, livable communities for generations to come. We believe access to the outdoors is a fundamental human need and essential to our health and well-being. We are committed to creating more places that bring us outside—parks, trails, playgrounds, and public lands—and making them available and welcoming to everyone, everywhere. We put communities first by helping them realize their vision of parks and green spaces that improve people’s health, nurture their joy, and strengthen their connection to the outdoors and one another. 

Since 1972 and for nearly four decades in Colorado, TPL has used the power of open spaces, parks, trails, and schoolyards to transform communities through improved physical and mental health, safety, community pride, and long-term environmental benefits. We are working in cities across the country to ensure every resident, regardless of income, race, age, or ability, has access to a high-quality park within a 10-minute walk of home.

Mission

The Trust for Public Land creates parks and protects land for people, ensuring healthy, livable communities for generations to come.

Background Statement

Quality parks and green spaces are fundamental for sustaining equitable, resilient communities. Access to nature and the outdoors—close to home, in the cities and communities where people live—is a matter of health, equity, and justice. That’s why we work alongside communities across the country to create, protect, and steward the nature-rich places that are vital to human well-being.

We’re driven by four commitments: equity, health, climate, and community.
