2027 Northern Colorado Intersections

The NoCo Foundation and Colorado State University’s Institute for the Built Environment are beginning the new 2027 Northern Colorado Intersections Report, Pursuing Community Well-Being in 2026.

The new report will be similar, but not the same as the 2024 Report. Our community has changed. Some of the pressures are the same, but new ones have also emerged. And new collaborations and opportunities have been born.

Join us during the next year while we:

• Reground in why this work matters now
• Take stock of what has changed since 2024
• Step back to see the full breadth of the Intersections Report
• Break into conversation about where we are—and where we could go during different engagement meetings and gatherings
• Ask: What do we need to build to strengthen our ability to work together?
• Consider: Where do you see your contribution in this next chapter?

For a person to reach a sense of well-being, their needs need to be met, they need to have a sense of security, they must have access to job or growth opportunities, and they must have social-emotional outlets such as connections, networks, and support systems. Well-being works at many levels, from individuals to a whole region.

• Mental: Can cope with the normal stresses of life
• Physical: Ability to maintain a healthy quality of life
• Financial: Financially secure & in control
• Work: Engaged & like what you do
• Community: Belonging & social connectedness
• Social: Meaningful relationships
