2015 COBALT Class Works With Denver Urban Scholars
COBALT, the CBA's leadership training program, held its annual service project on August 5 at the Colorado State Capitol. Members of the 2015 COBALT class led middle and high school students who are part of Denver Urban Scholars on a downtown tour to meet various legal professionals in their respective working environments. The students learned about professional opportunities in the industry, how professionals got where they are, and how they can get there too. The journey continues on October 18, when Race for Success participants will run together in the Denver Rock 'n' Roll Marathon and volunteer for Denver Urban Scholars at its marathon booth. Denver Urban Scholars is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping metro Denver students graduate high school and enter higher education with a meaningful life plan for success.
