  • Read this article and watch this video about Estes Park Middle School students advocating for policy change around WUI codes (first-place winners of the Rise Challenge in 22/23!)
  • Watch a video produced by students at Collegiate Academy of Colorado who carried out a community service project to create defensible space (nominated as a finalist for the Rise Challenge 23/24!)
