Western Colorado Alliance of Garfield County

We envision respectful, thriving, and equitable communities where residents are actively engaged in creating sustainable local policies and participating in civic and social activities that ensure a good quality of life is accessible for everyone in Garfield County.
Grand Valley Citizens Alliance

We choose to live in a beautiful area of western Garfield County that happens to be resource-rich with natural gas, shale oil, crude oil, coal, and other energy-producing resources. For nearly 100 years, locals have been pricked, prodded, drilled, fracked, mined, and even bombed in attempts to extract these minerals. Formed in 1997, the Grand Valley Citizens Alliance has extensive experience when it comes to tackling the impacts of energy development — especially regarding oil and gas drilling.
