Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is developing a new 10-year strategic plan to guide its work from 2026 to 2036. CPW is currently gathering input for this plan from staff, stakeholders and the public.
CPW invites and encourages the public to submit feedback to inform CPW’s 2026 Strategic Plan. Feedback is being collected anonymously through May 26 on EngageCPW.org.
CPW’s current Strategic Plan was adopted in 2015. While this plan has guided the agency’s efforts well since then, it’s no surprise that the world has changed significantly in 10 years. CPW’s 2026 Strategic Plan will serve as a roadmap to address current and future challenges and opportunities, enhance service to the public, and strengthen the agency’s commitment to stewardship of parks and wildlife resources balanced with outdoor recreation opportunities.
The comment form is designed to gather insights on how the public and partners understand and interact with CPW to help create a roadmap that addresses current and future challenges and opportunities. Approval of the new strategic plan by the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission is anticipated in June 2026.
