Destination Imagination Colorado (DICO) (www.DIColorado.com) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing challenging programming to youth throughout Colorado that promotes creative thinking to solve interesting problems in areas related to science, engineering, technology, arts, theatre, and service-learning. Throughout the past decades, young people compete in teams to engage in problem-solving in a competitive setting. Students learn leadership, teamwork, real-world skills, and persistence as they work together in competition with other teams. Our success has been demonstrated through the learning, engagement, and sense of efficacy that both adults and students show each year as they tackle interesting problems and compete on regional, state, and global levels.
The DI Colorado Board of Directors, along with the Executive Director and regional directors, provide leadership to the program. Our fervent desire is to provide an opportunity for every interested child in Colorado to participate on a Destination Imagination team.
We are seeking creative leaders to help us support that vision: people who are ready to help us increase our participation, and especially to increase the demographic diversity of our youth and adult participants and to ensure our growth and sustainability in years to come.
If you would like to help, please nominate yourself for a position on the DI-CO Board!
