  • An Examination of Recruiting and Selection Practices to Promote Diversity for Colorado State Troopers
    Research Report C O R P O R A T I O N TRACY C. KRUEGER, SEAN ROBSON, KIRSTEN M. KELLER An Examination of Recruiting and Selection Practices to Promote Diversity for Colorado State Troopers he Colorado State Patrol (CSP) has recently increased investments to attract, select, and train highly qualified troopers. An important component of these efforts is to increase the demographic composition of CSP to better reflect the communities it serves. Achieving Tthese goals can be challenging because the levels of interest and qualifications required to serve in law enforcement, and specifically as a state trooper, may not be equally distributed across the state. Furthermore, the strategies used to meet these goals must adhere to equal opportu- nity laws to ensure legal compliance and a fair selection process. Despite these difficulties, CSP’s 2019–2023 Strategic Plan emphasizes its continued commitment to these KEY FINDINGS objectives. For example, one compo- nent of the four strategic goals reads, ■ In 2015, the Colorado State Patrol (CSP) replaced its in-house writ- “Building upon recent incremental ten examination with a professionally developed aptitude test.

Due to the diversity of geographic and demographic regions in Colorado, accomplishments of each field district will be featured annually. Although state-wide fatalities increased in calendar year 1989 over 1988, we are holding the line on fatal accidents investigated by the Patrol. Our success resulted from our proven technique of identifying and targeting high accident-causing violations and locations and applying available resources to solve the problems.

As the leader of an agency that has lost three members in an eighteen month period in 2015-2016, I am humbled at their perseverance, commitment and selfless giving of their time and expertise. Special thanks are to be given to the Colorado Association of Chiefs of Police, the County Sheriff’s of Colorado, the Colorado Association of Fire Chiefs, the Towing and Recovery Professionals of Colorado and the Colorado Department of Transportation. The collaboration and ideas contained within this document are innovative and provide a quality resource with recommendations for a safer environment for Colorado’s first responders. This proposal is an in-depth look at what is currently being done, but to be effective it is important to address that there is much more work that needs to be done to prevent future deaths of our first responders.

On November 25, 2016, Trooper Cody Donahue was killed in the line of duty while investigating a crash on the highway. Trooper Donahue was the third line of duty death experienced by the Colorado State Patrol family in 18 months. After Cody’s tragic death, the community responded with an outpouring of support for the men and women of the Patrol and for law enforcement across the state. As the agency continues to grieve and heal, we will carry on Cody’s legacy as each of our members serve the public with dedication and honor in the fight to save lives. The Colorado State Patrol continues to focus its efforts on traffic safety and the reduction of fatal and injury crashes. Although fatal and injury crashes increased by 2.9 percent when compared CHIEF’S MESSAGE to 2015, the CSP did realize a 9 percent decrease in the number of unrestrained fatalities. In addition, the CSP made significant progress in the implementation of the traffic incident management (TIM) system.
