机会来了——科罗拉多州特立尼达的一个新兴校园
Trinidad, Colorado is home to a thriving arts and outdoor recreation community, a state college, a growing small business sector and a workforce eager for opportunities ——然而，还有更多的可能性. High paying jobs across the US are increasingly remote, tied to the technology sector, and with hiring gaps in the tens of thousands - yet pathways into these fields for youth who grow up in historically impoverished southern Colorado and northern New 墨西哥会让人感觉完全遥不可及.
新兴校园特立尼达 offers a clear roadmap for replicating demonstrated impact on job placement, advancement, and broader economic development across Southern Colorado. We envision Trinidad as an innovation hub for businesses that can supercharge our regional economic story - through new employers drawn in by lower costs, who in turn provide tangible internship and job pathways for our students into high wage industries, 所有这些都将引领下一代与农村相关的创业公司和雇主.

Community leaders have a vision to create a state-of-the-art technology center for the greater Trinidad area, which began several years ago with two major capital investments. First, Trinidad School District received a Colorado Department of Education BEST 拨款超过两千万美元翻新他们的中学校园. 的 Park Street Building, which will house EC Trinidad, will host technology businesses 以及远程工作者，为该地区提供就业机会和职业发展途径. 的 物业已准备好入住.
Second, 世界杯滚球, directly across the street from the Park Street Building, is undergoing an $8 million library renovation, opening in June 2024 with a cutting-edge makerspace, training rooms, and multi-purpose collaboration spaces for use by tech-center 租户、远程工作者和大学生. 的 library renovation also includes relaxing co-working/study spaces with breathtaking views of the newly opened Fishers Peak State Park, a natural lure for tech-industry 专业人士.
为什么选南科罗拉多?
的 Southern Colorado region carries enormous historical and cultural significance, 然而，在经济发展的诸多指标上却被抛在了后面. 的re is an urgent and compelling need to increase educational attainment and economic 机会遍布科罗拉多州的农村地区. 这些不平等就是结果 of rural isolation, multi-generational poverty, and low regional postsecondary attainment 这一比例在2019冠状病毒病期间加剧了. 我们相信农村回流 and upskilling/reskilling both learners and earners presents an innovative approach 振兴这个重要的社区.
我们的工作进展
Our coalition believes adding Trinidad as an 紧急的校园 hub would immediately bring concrete benefits to Trinidad and the surrounding region by leveraging 24 existing southern Colorado employers already in the network, providing additional internship pathways in the first year of operating, and growing in years two and three to be 一个全面活跃的创新中心和当地商界的中心. We have secured the renovated space, wired and ready to activate, across the street 从一所获奖的大学. 我们正在寻求合作伙伴、资金和资源 继续让这个有价值和令人兴奋的梦想成为现实.
