Partners in the Outdoors Conference Seeks Reset with First Ombuds

Colorado Parks and Wildlife has hired an Ombuds as part of reform efforts for its Partners in the Outdoors Conference. The annual event, which is intended to engage conservationists and recreational users of the state's natural resources, was derailed by allegations of racism in 2022 and then canceled in 2023. Conference organizers have contracted with MWI to provide Conference Ombuds services in Breckenridge on April 15-17, 2024. Jai Calloway will serve as the Ombuds for over 400 attendees and others, including staff, presenters, and exhibitors. Calloway brings significant experience to the role, having served as an Ombuds for Halliburton, Iowa State University, CVS, Cambridge Innovation Center, and Harris Health System.
