San Juan County
San Juan County is unique due to the many different cultures that reside within, boasting an array as beautiful and interesting as the scenery that runs from tree-covered mountains to jetting sandstone formations. The largest county by land area, it covers 7,821 square miles with approximately 15,000 residents. Because grassroots is key to long-term societal change in the Bolder Way Forward (BWF) Framework, the San Juan County Coalition leaders strive to bring the BWF message to every city, town, business, neighborhood, and family. The County Coalition is part of the BWF Southeast Regional Coalition including Carbon, Emery, Grand, and San Juan Counties which together amplify the efforts in the region. Since the “whole is greater than the sum of the parts,” we look at individuals and organizations currently doing the work in each spoke, or focus area, and elevate existing efforts. By lifting women and girls, we lift all residents.
