Colorado Department of Public Safety

Veterans in Public Safety (VIPs)

CDPS has 55 owned office and operational spaces around the entire state of Colorado. CDPS oversees the Colorado State Patrol, Colorado Bureau of Investigations, Fire Prevention, Criminal Justice, Emergency Management Administration, and School Safety Resources for the state. All in-processing must be completed at the Executive Directors Office in Lakewood, CO but depending on conversations with HR about desired skills training and location preference, the applicant may be placed in any space based on mutual agreement between them and the state. CDPS will try to be as flexible as possible to match the applicants desired skills training and location preference.
