News that shows ‘Pueblo’ means people

Welcome to Better Pueblo

...a dynamic community resource of people committed to improving the quality of life in Pueblo County through active citizen participation in democratic processes.

Better Pueblo is a network of people committed to quality of life in the greater Pueblo area. Most of the members of the network are from other area organizations or businesses with backgrounds and interest in agriculture, business, economics, environment, labor, public health, and religion. As members of the network, we have children, families, and homes in the area. We have businesses or farms that operate here. We have other organizations that we work with that share the goals of the network.

Current Priorities

Currently, this shared commitment has directed the network to work on issues involving environmental justice, worker rights and safety, clean air and water, public health, and healthy & sustainable agriculture. The group also focuses on public policy and public policymakers to promote decisions that are better for Pueblo and the surrounding communities.
