The Colorado Emergency Preparedness Partnership is a public-private enterprise created by the Denver InfraGard Members Alliance (IMA), the Denver Police Foundation, Business Executives for National Security and the Philanthropy Roundtable. It is a broad coalition to implement a voluntary, all-hazards partnership between business and government and, to date, has been the product of many Colorado partners including leaders of the philanthropic community, federal, state and local agencies, business, academia, and US Northern Command.
