Colorado Parks & Wildlife Commission Chair talks about efforts to be more culturally inclusive

Duncan, Travis

Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission Chair Carrie Hauser wrote a recent opinion piece about the agency's opportunity to be more culturally inclusive in naming, signage, and history programming. In March, the commission updated its naming policy. For KVNF News, Laura Palmisano speaks to Hauser, who's also the president of Colorado Mountain College.

Laura joined KVNF in 2014. She was the news director for two years and now works as a freelance reporter covering Colorado's Western Slope. Laura is an award-winning journalist with work recognized by the Society of Professional Journalists, Colorado Broadcasters Association, and RTDNA. In 2015, she was a fellow for the Institute for Justice & Journalism. Her fellowship project, a three-part series on the Karen refugee community in Delta, Colorado, received a regional Edward R. Murrow Award.
