Career Pathways Engagement Coordinator

Overview

HISTORY COLORADO has a strong commitment to diversity, inclusion and cultural competency, and we continuously seek to recruit individuals who will enhance this diversity and the effectiveness of our organization. Two foundational beliefs guide us:
We love Colorado and we believe in the transformative power of history. We are a people-driven, history-centered movement building a better future through shared knowledge and meaning that improves lives today and for our descendants.

As an agency of the State of Colorado and a non-profit organization, we are committed to serving all Coloradans. We offer access to the state’s history through enriching experiences at eleven museums and historic sites, engaging with school groups and young learners through field trips, day camps, and traveling programs. We are home to a free public research center, Colorado’s Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (OAHP), and the Colorado State Historical Fund (SHF), the nation’s largest preservation program of its kind.

We steward 15 million objects, photographs, and archival resources that make up the State’s collection, and serve tens of thousands of learners of all ages through dynamic programs. We strive to be a place of belonging for all Coloradans, committing to diverse communities through education, engagement, and access. It is our vision that every Coloradan feels rooted, draws strength from those who have come before us, and knows they belong in this place.

In pursuit of a more just and equitable Colorado, we embody grounding virtues as the foundation of our work and commit to: being in community; amplifying and centering voices of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color; co-creation and shared authority; humility and reflection; responsiveness and flexibility; and a shared destiny.

Our work is guided by, for, and of the communities we build, belong to, and serve.
