According3. to Public Information Officer Lauren Castrogiovannion, the incident occurred around 8:15 p.m. at the Walgreens located on the corner of W. Colfax Avenue and Kipling Street. The suspect entered a truck to flee from the store and ran over the employee as they were standing outside the store, seriously injuring them.

Lakewood Police are searching for a man who they believe intentionally ran over an employee after shoplifting at a Walgreens on the night of Sept.

“It’s helpful. I’ll still have to do my due diligence, read reports and more, but it’s a good start,” said Lakewood resident Laurae Davis.

The suspected involved truck is a 1993 Chevy Silverado with a step-side truck bed, according to a release by Lakewood Police Department. The truck had a Colorado license plate number of OLF035 at the time of the assault. The truck has a dark blue hood and front fender, with the rest of the vehicle gray.

Super insulating your home can reduce the cost of heating it, whether by natural gas or electricity (using a heat pump system). Ditto for installing triple-pane Alpen windows and doors.Ifyou go all-electric, you not only save on the natural gas or propane you consume, you can have your gas meter removed, saving on the base cost of being connected to the gas distribution network. As a commercial customer, Golden Real Estate, saves over $600 per year from having removed our gas meter, since that’s what Xcel Energy charges before a business uses a single cubic foot of natural gas. The savings is lower for residential customers.

The event is part of the annual Metro Denver Green Homes Tour on Oct. 1st.

So, yes, it may cost more to go allelectric, but the return on investment is substantial over a pretty short period of time.

John Horst of the National Renewable Energy Lab read last week’s column about the Inflation Reduction Act’s impact on the building sector and provided some valuable additional information.Forstarters, he made me aware of the White House website, which has a listing of tax credits and grants under the IRA which pertain specifically to each state. On www.GoldenREblog.com I have posted the link for the Colorado

This coming Sunday, Sept. 18th, I’m the guest speaker, along with Jenn Gomer of CarePatrol, at the Sunday Night Club West meeting at Lakewood’s Clement Center, 1580 Yarrow Street. All are welcome.

As your surely know, such improvements reduce the operating cost of a home. Solar panels, for example, can virtually eliminate your electrical bill, if your system is sized correctly. They can even provide free fuel for your cars if they are powered by electricity.

If you’d like to attend our presentation, call Barbara Stannard at 303987-8200. Come for dinner at 6:00, or just show up for our presentation, which starts at 7:00. We look forward to sharing what we know!

I haven’t purchased gasoline for my electric cars since 2014, during which time I have saved tens of thousands of dollars on gasoline and repairs on components that don’t exist on an EV, such as transmission, engine, fuel pumps, water pumps, timing belts and so much more. And I have never had a catalytic converter stolen — or lost any sleep after reading about the epidemic of such thefts in my Forgettingcity.

At press time 13 owners who have driven a half-million miles on electricity alone have registered for this event.

Take a narrated video tour, including drone video, at www MillbrookTownhome online, then come to an open house this Saturday, 11-1, or call 303-525-1851 for a showing.

John also provided a link to a list of 59 state and federal tax credits (both personal and corporate), loan programs, grant programs, rebate programs, sales tax incentives, regulatory policies, energy standards and more — each with its own link for further information. That link is also posted on our blog mentioned above.

benefits. It’s a two-page PDF with paragraphs about those financial incentives plus job creation, manufacturing, cleaner air, rural opportunities and “resilient communities.”Onenewincentive that hasn’t gotten a lot of coverage is the $4,000 upfront discount on the purchase of used electric cars and trucks. In the past, there was no incentive for purchasing a used EV, and the $7,500 incentive for a new EV came only as a tax credit on the following year’s tax return. Making both incen-

Broker Associates:

Looked at it this way, does it make any sense at all to build a home powered by fossil fuels, that is not solar powered or that has “normal” insulation and have higher monthly cost of ownership, starting from day one? Of course not.

You can apply the same reasoning to the purchase of an electric car. You could go with the conventional wisdom that electric cars are more expensive and you should wait until the price comes down, but that thinking substantially misrepresents the cost of ownership

Each year on the first Saturday of October Golden Real Estate hosts an Electric Vehicle Roundup in the parking lot of The Net Zero Store (our former real estate office), at 17695 S. Golden Road. And every year 30 or more different EVs are displayed by their owners who are there to answer questions for prospective EV owners.

This great townhome at 5514 W. Canyon Trail #D is in great shape and backs to a greenbelt. The price was just reduced to $395,000

“Conventional wisdom” says that it costs more to build a solar powered, highly sustainable or net zero energy home, and while that may be true, consider the following.

for the moment that there are indeed EVs which cost no more than their gasoline-powered equivalents, even if you paid $10,000 more for an EV than you might for a gas powered car, the cost of financing that difference is far less than what you’ll save on fuel and repairs.

According to Marketing and Community Engagement Manager Joan Thielen, the shelter has similar events two or three times a year.

Alastair Keith-Lucas and Kelsa Warner previously volunteered at Foothills Animal Shelter, coming to the Pup Up Market to keep on supporting with their dog Llewyn.

This is the second year of the Pup Up Market, and she pointed out that 100% of the proceeds go to the shelter to help support its programs such as veterinary work, including dental surgeries, orthodontic surgeries and spay and neutering, along with other programs like Better Together, where the shelter works to help keep people and pets together by sheltering pets for

the planning and property department of Jeffco Public schools, spoke on the projected amount of children that may come from housing developments the District is aware of in the Jeffco public school area. He highlighted each area impacted by the consolidations, expecting about 192 future students from Bear Creek, 752 out of Green Mountain, 122 from Jefferson, 169 in Lakewood, and 84 projected to come from WheatRelouRidge.alsohighlighted that class sizes were expected to stay within the agreement made with Jefferson County Education Association — which represents educators in the district — at 18 to 24 students for kindergarten to third grade, and 22 to 30 for fourth to sixth grade.

The priorities presented by Deputy Superintendent Kym LeBlanc-Esparza covered high quality instructional materials and practices, students reading on grade level by third grade, each student being proficient at math by fifth and eight grade, on track credit-wise as a ninth grader, and every student having the “knowledge and skills for a post-secondary life” when they graduate.Thespecific grade levels were called “foundational” for those subjects. LeBlanc-Esparza elaborated that being on the correct reading grade level by third grade set students on the right path further along, with math proficiencies at fifth and eighth having similar longterm effects on their future capabilities.She elaborated on how the District intends on fulfilling these priorities, such as expanding universal pre-k and using high dosage tutoring to help with grade level reading, and “high-quality instructional materials for mathematics” along with training for teachers to use these

materials to help with math proﬁciency.Forother, not purely academic standards, LeBlanc-Esparza explained that “digital citizenship” and “digital equity” would be a large part of fulﬁlling an “extraordinary student experience,” as well as ensuring “all students have access to effective intervention supports andBoardsystems.”member Paula Reed questioned how best to determine actual competency of students and not just stress the importance of credits for students and teachers alike. LeBlanc-Esparz responded that further data like test scores will be used, and she highlighted another point of Reed’s that students must also have input to be able to “own” their goals and data and further motivate them.“Being data-driven as an organization does not mean that it all falls on individual teachers,” pointed out Superintendent Tracy Dorland. “The hope with being data-driven is that the District accepts responsibility building systems and structures that support schools, as they leverage those systems and structures to support students.”

During the Sept. 7 meeting, the Jefferson County Board of Education heard an update on the Jeffco Thriving 2025project, which aims to update how the district deﬁnes a “thriving” student and school.

Lisa Relou, chief of strategy and communications for the District, presented updated information to the Board of Directors about school consolidations.

The original recommendation from the District on Aug. 25 to the Board was to close 16 elementary schools — including K-2, K-5 and K-6 schools — mainly due to underenrollment and an excess of capacity. On Sept. 7, Relou reiterated that each school will have a community meeting about the consolidations — one in September, one in October — as well as a one-hour public hearing, all before the Board votes on Nov. 10.

“We just wanted to assure people that we still will have space in our elementary schools for additional students, should they come,” elaborated Relou. She also highlighted a concern about “bubbles” of students and said, “we’ll certainly have enough room.”

The majority of the funds for the project were granted to the church by a local foundation, according to Wahlberg. To raise money for the rest of the project, the team turned to its congregation. The steeple fundraiser, which ran from May 8 through Sept. 1, surpassed its $40,000 goal with a total of $41,500, according to the website.

In 2020, the architectural engineering ﬁrm Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc. (WJE) conducted an analysis of the steeple and found that its wooden beams were rotting, according to L.J. Porter, an elder on the steeple committee. This damage was contributing to leaks into the sanctuary over the years, he said.

With many churches struggling these days, the elders said they hope the new steeple will inspire curiosity about Green Mountain Presbyterian and will show that it’s a viable, inviting and warm place.“The thought of it being this beautiful steeple, now covered with this metal cladding system that is so distinguished, on this skyline in this west part of Lakewood, I think is just absolutely thrilling. To think about that being such a beacon of light,” Wilson said. “And that’s of course what we want our church to be for this community.”

After trying to find a solution for the leaking during his years as a facilities elder, Porter is excited that a steeple restoration is finally happening.“Istruggled with trying to fix the silly thing for 20-some years,” he said. “It’s nice to see we got some money to really do a good fix on it.”

In about a month, observant hikers in the Green Mountain hills will notice a difference when they gaze out at the Lakewood area from above. Where they used to see a prominent wooden steeple arising from Green Mountain Presbyterian Church, they will see a shinier and stronger version of the structure than what they remember.

Fifty-seven years after the ﬁrst cornerstone of Green Mountain Presbyterian Church was laid, its steeple is undergoing a massive restoration project. The goal of the project is to secure the structure for the future, prevent leaking and keep it maintenance-free, according to the church’s website.

Millions of dollars are already being spent in support of initiatives 96, 121 and 122, including nearly $2 million from U.S. Rep. David Trone and his brother, Robert, who own the national Total Wine & More chain. The Trones are supporting Initiative 96, which would let Total Wine open more stores in Colorado.Rightnow, liquor retailers are allowed to open only three stores in Colorado. Total Wine has two Colorado stores and will soon open a third. Small retail liquor stores are ﬁercely opposed to the measure.

SINUS PROBLEMS?

Already on the ballot was Initiative 58, a measure to decriminalize and regulate the use of “magic” mushrooms, and Initiative 31, a measure asking voters to reduce the state income tax rate to 4.4% fromAdditionally,4.55%.

The legislature referred two statutory measures to the ballot this year, including one that would reduce state income tax deductions for people with higher incomes and use the savings to provide free K-12 school meals for all students. The other would require detailed information about how ballot measures changing the income tax rate would impact various income brackets to be more prominently displayed to voters.

Debate around Peters’ request to depose Barrett and Mesa County District Attorney Dan Rubinstein, who is prosecuting the criminal case against Peters, has been swirling for weeks.

Dunkelman ruled Barrett and Rubinstein only had to answer questions during the deposition about what they saw, but Steinberg contended that he should be able to press Barrett on his “opinions on Ms. Peters’ credibility.”

“There is every reason to think that (Peters) could attempt to use the deposition to undermine the perception that the judge is an impartial arbiter.”

The Colorado Supreme Court on Sept. 7 temporarily blocked indicted Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters from deposing the judge presiding over the case against her in connection with an unrelated contempt of court matter.

It’s the latest twist in a weekslong legal drama threatening to roil the criminal case against Peters, a 2020 election conspiracy theorist accused of crimes stemming from a security breach of her county’s voting system.

The state Supreme Court ordered Peters to submit written arguments by Oct. 5 as to why the deposition should be allowed. Mesa County District Judge Matthew Barrett then has 21 days to reply. The Supreme Court will then determine whether to allow the

Barrett and Rubinstein argued that deposing them wasn’t necessary because they didn’t actually see the alleged ﬁlming, but rather were told about it by an employee of the district attorney’s ofﬁce.

The contempt of court charge, which is being handled as a civil matter, stems from an allegation that Peters used an iPad to record a portion of a February court proceeding for her former chief deputy, Belinda Knisley, and then lied to Barrett when he asked aboutRubinsteinit.

Peters, who ran unsuccessfully this year to be Colorado’s secretary of state, was indicted by a grand jury in March.

ney.But they were ordered by District Judge Paul R. Dunkelman, the judge appointed to oversee the contempt of court case, to appear for the depositions, though they were told they only had to answer questions related to the conduct that led to Peters being charged with contempt of court.

Barrett was also overseeing Knisley’s case, before she pleaded guilty last month and agreed to testify against Peters. In her plea agreement with Rubinstein’s ofﬁce, Knisley said Peters ﬁlmed the proceedings at her request “and then lied to the judge about doing so, including acknowledging to Ms. Knisley that she lied.”

Both Barrett and Rubinstein sought to quash the subpoenas ordering them to be deposed by Peters’ lawyer, Harvey Steinberg, a high-proﬁle Denver defense attor-

She is charged with three counts of attempting to influence a public servant, a Class 4 felony; one count of attempting to influence a public servant, a Class 5 felony; one count of criminal impersonation, a Class 6 felony; one count of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, a Class 6 felony; one count of identity theft, a Class 4 felony; and one count of first-degree official misconduct, a Class 2 misdemeanor.

up-your-kids’ myth is really just that.”According to the U.S. Department of State, there is an average of 24.9 million trafficking victims worldwide at any given time. Statistics show that anyone of any race, age or gender can become a victim. Human trafficking is defined as a crime of exploitation; victims are pressured into providing labor — including sex as a form of labor — through the use of force, fraud or coercion. But trafficking also happens in many industries such as landscaping, hospitality and restaurants, construction, massage parlors, childcare, domestic work, factories and janitorial services. Many of these workplaces are in low wage industries with high turnover rates.

Debunking ‘white van’ myth of human tra cking

Many low-wage industries around America employ victims

Napolitano added that most victims are recruited.

“Oftentimes it’s someone they know and love. So this ‘Stranger danger, white van marauding the neighborhoods gonna-snatch-

Denver’s Laboratory to Combat Human Tra cking.

And that also makes many human trafficking cases difficult to prosecute in court, explained Napolitano, who said that only a few hundred cases have been prosecuted in Colorado over the last several years.

“I think one of the biggest myths and what we see on social media is that people are kidnapped by a stranger and taken into a situation that would be sex trafficking, when in fact that is almost never the case,” she said, adding that most victims are trafficked by someone familiar to them, which sometimes includes parents trafficking children.

“There’s a lot of stigma and shame around the experience of being trafficked and losing control over your life,” Pryshlak said, “so when a human trafficking survivor shows up at the hospital or school, they’re not going to be that person who’s saying ‘help!’”

“They are identified by the perpetrator or trafficker as being vulnerable and people are vulnerable for lots of reasons. They’re experiencing homelessness, they’re using drugs, they’re desperately looking for work,” Napolitano explained, saying that many victims had a traumatic childhood. “They’re looking for love and inclusion, and a trafficker reaches in and offers that person the thing they need — that love, the bus ticket, the job, the housing — and kind of hooks them that way.”

The Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking actually functions as a hub for information, data and resources for antitrafficking efforts across the state, while also taking aroundthe-clock calls that come in on Colorado’s Human Trafficking hotline. Anywhere from two to five calls come into the hotline on a daily basis.

“We provide the resources for the needs of trafficking survivors in Colorado. Survivors call looking for resources themselves, or providers that are working for survivors. Sometimes we get tips that we pass on to law enforcement when requested,” said Kara Napolitano, the Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking’s research and trainingNapolitanomanager.explained that human trafficking goes beyond what most people see in mainstream media and social media.

A threat to vulnerable populations

“It’s good to see that they’re recognizing what we’ve known as Democrats for quite a long time, that representation absolutely does matter,” said Lisa Calderon, the head of Emerge, a Democratic training program for female candidates that has had a lot of success and includes alumni at theButstatehouse.Calderon says both political parties need to do a better job of treating people of color as a serious voting bloc; she’d like to see them interacting and engaging with these communities continuously.“Being an Afro Latina myself, we’re much more complex than I think either party gives us credit for,” she Democratsaid.Junie Joseph, a first time House candidate in Boulder County, views the Colorado GOP’s focus on broadening its pool of candidates as an act of necessity for the party to stay relevant. Joseph was born in Haiti and moved to the U.S when she was 14. She currently serves on the Boulder city council.

‘People are tired of being polarized’

However, the party nationally is taking steps to try to counter that image. Rahn points to the network of community centers the Republican National Committee is opening to reach voters of color as one of the many ways GOP candidates can hear the issues specific to people from different backgrounds.

“I can understand why the Republican party wants to tap into that strength. But the thing is, it’s about love of people. And

For some of this year’s GOP candidates, though, the party offers exactly the respect they think Democrats have failed to deliver.Justtwo years ago, Stephen Varela was helping to organize Democratic voter outreach to Pueblo’s Latino community ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

ing a box that I’m Hispanic, or because I’m a young Hispanic. It’s more because, ‘Hey, you have a lot to offer,’” he said.

The Republican Party holds a similar appeal for business consultant and attorney Tom Kim, a state Senate candidate in Arapahoe County. If Kim wins, he could be the legislature’s only Asian American member, but he believes the focus of elections should be on issues, not the color of someone’s skin.

“We were very much raised with this idea that America’s the greatest country in the world and here are the values that make it so great,” said Kim. “It was never about our ancestry as being Korean. And I know there’s lots of statistics about who’s identifying with the Republican Party, but, I’m just thrilled to see all of the different perspectives that have come around the table.”

Rahn says historically Republicans have concentrated on issues, not“Itdemographics.hasn’tbeena focus. But because of that, there are communities who feel like we don’t care.”

“People are tired of being polarized or tagged into one area,” said Varela, “being told that you’re Hispanic or you’re African American or you’re Asian, so you have to be a Democrat. I don’t believe that.”

“I’m not really a big proponent of identifying people by anything other than who they are as a person,” he said.

“We have one of the most diverse countries, when you’re thinking of developed nations, in the world. I highly doubt any institution will survive without diversifying itself, especially in the United States.” She added that this is the country’s greatest strength and beauty.

Kim’s grandparents immigrated to the U.S from what is now North Korea and built a restaurant business. His father served in World War II and the Korean war. Kim is a long-time Republican; he registered in college and voted twice for President Ronald Reagan.

A new strategy at a difficult moment Republicans’ new outreach efforts come at a time when the party is more marginalized in Colorado than it has been in decades.Democrats have controlled both chambers of Colorado’s legislature for the past four years. They also hold all of the major statewide offices and both U.S. Senate seats.Totry to reverse that blue tide, Republicans this year are trying to focus much of their election messaging on the cost of living, crime and education — issues voters have identified as major concerns — while generally avoiding more polarizing topics like abortion and election conspiracy theories.

I don’t see that coming from the party yet, the love of people, the love of neighbor, bringing people in, they’re not there yet.”

But he’s since soured on the Democratic Party, feeling like it has moved too far to the left and hasn’t done anything to really protect union jobs. And he said it felt like he was just viewed as “the Hispanic guy in Pueblo” who only got a call when the party wanted something. Varela has changed party affiliations numerous times in the past decade, the Pueblo Chieftain has reported.

This year, Varela is a newly minted Republican running for state Senate in a hotly contested seat that could help determine which party controls that chamber.“For the first time I’m at the table, not because I was a union president or because I’m check-

But, that’s not all Jeffco is dealing with. In August, the results of last year’s State Assessments came out, and the numbers were grim. In fact, one point you probably didn’t hear is that those numbers were actually skewed upwards, because a signiﬁcant number of students from the “at-risk” population opted out of testing, as was their right while we were dealing with COVID. Statistically speaking, those students’ scores on such tests tend to be on the low end, bringing the overall averages down.

for children all the way into adulthood, but far too many parents across Colorado simply can’t afford it. Providing up to 10 hours a week of free universal preschool for families means more kids will have access to the nurturing early education programs they need to grow, it will be easier for parents to get back to work and we will save families money. This is a win for families with young children, and a win for our economy.

Johnston also helped get a lawyer and a notary to visit Smith and Barr to complete Smith’s will, something Barr said they were panicked about beforehand.Earlyinthe morning on June 4, Smith passed away in Barr’s home. Upon her passing, Barr asked Johnston to check in with Smith’s parents, as she didn’t have the emotional bandwidth to do so. Johnston also came to Smith’s celebration of life, held at Hudson Gardens.

“We ﬁgured that our voices together would be louder than our voices separately, so that was the impetus for just, let’s get together and cultivate a community,” she said. “We want to provide a community not just for the providers who are doing this work, but for people who need these services.”

Barr said, explaining the nurse came over about three times and the chaplain and social worker each checked in once. “And so just having another support system was huge.”

A network of support

“I feel like Vanessa gave us a lot more support than hospice was able to, and even if it was just talking and checking on us and trying to help facilitate things with visitors,” Barr said.Barr describes death doulas as wonderful people who can guide others through the dying process, whether it be navigating the paperwork, the emotional part or the physical part.

Originally, Johnston said the idea was to only have a directory of doulas in the nonproﬁt, but then the members saw there was a need to also have a network of other providers, called afﬁliate members, such as people working in funeral homes, grief counselors, notaries and so on.

She began connecting with other doulas in the Denver area, and in 2020, they decided to form the Colorado End-of-Life Collaborative, a nonproﬁt membership organization. She explained it helped create a support network for the doulas and get the word out about their profession.

“It’s that community that says, nobody can do this work alone,” Sargent said about the nonproﬁt, explaining members of the collaborative can call on one another for assistance. “All of the members of that group have a specialty, have a passion.”

Having a death doula helped get Smith to a point where she could talk about her death and share her wishes with others, Barr said. Johnston also helped Smith’s family and friends navigate the ﬁnal days, encouraging people to talk about what was happening and to share happy memories of Smith.

“Duringclients.that30-year period of time, clients would come to us because of dysfunctional family, or because they had no family, or where the court made a determination that a disinterested third party was needed to serve in the role of conservator,” she said.

DEATH DOULA

Now, there are more than 35 afﬁliate members across Colorado, and the number is growing, she said.

The following year, Johnston established her business, which she said was a complicated process. Part of the difﬁculty was convincing people that her services were valuable and something everyone would beneﬁt from.

Before entering the death doula profession, Johnston worked as a high school English teacher.

ing with the International End of Life Doula Association, which she completed in the summer of 2017. She began volunteering in hospice and applied her new skills towards helping care for the man, who passed in October 2017.

Barr said it was valuable to have Johnston around, who had been through the process before and would often reassure everyone that they were doing a great job. She said Johnston offered emotional support to people, often explaining what was happening to visitors and helping remove some fear about the situation.

“Iover.think that it’s a great thing to help you on that part of the journey, to have a death doula,” Barr said. “I think that it can help with all of the feelings and fears and emotions.”

In 2015, she was looking for a different career outside of teaching, and a friend asked if she would be interested in serving as an assistant to a man who had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, a progressive nervous system disease.

One afﬁliate member is Crispin Sargent, a certiﬁed grief yoga instructor who worked for 30 years as a geriatric care manager, offering services such as advance care planning and acting as power of attorney or conservator for some

She has since begun a new company, Chun Hwa LLC, which focuses on offering yoga and grief counseling, she said. However, as an afﬁliate member of the nonproﬁt, she still offers services related to advance care planning and the “business of death,” as she calls it.

Becoming a death doula

Death is a life experience, she said, and she knows from personal experience the value of planning and preparing for death before a person is close to it or is in crisis.

“And I felt like I had really helped him and his wife just go through that last milestone in a way that honored his story. And I thought, ‘Well gosh, I really want to continue to do this if I can,’” she said.

“And so I said, ‘I’m happy to do that. I have no medical experience whatsoever, but if he’s just looking for a companion, I can do that,’” Johnston said.While caring for the man, she heard about a book called “Caring for the Dying: The Doula Approach to a Meaningful Death.” Through reading, she learned “death doula” was the term for a person who serves as a compassionate companion to someone at the end of life.

“If you try and do all of that at the

“You want to do all of your planning at a time where there can be stories that are told,” she said, explaining planning ahead of time allows for more consideration of options and for a person’s loved ones to understand the plan as well.

Choosing to become a death doula was a spiritual type of decision for Keeran.In2020, a year before she retired from her career in business, Keeran was meditating and asked the uni verse what she should do next. She said she woke up the next morning and it was like a light switch had been turned on — she should become a death doula.

One of her ﬁrst clients was her friend, Maxine Wagoner, an owner of a yoga studio in Golden that Keeran is a member of. Wagoner said she had never heard of a death doula until Keeran approached her.

“You have to put yourself in a mindset of, you have three months left to live. And then, in that threemonth time, what practically do you want to accomplish?” Wagoner said. “And it was good to be able to do it without actually being in that situa tion.”Aspart of the experience, Keeran gave Wagoner a map to write down what Wagoner’s wishes were so her family would know, helping alleviate some of the stress her family would experience following her death.

change in the future.

“The tricky thing is, is that people have done what I do for millennia,” Johnston said, explaining she doesn’t want to create further barriers to entering the profession.

In her current role, Johnston has maximum independence and ﬂexibil ity, she said. However, being outside the medical care system can hinder people’s willingness to pay for the death doula services since it’s out-ofpocket, she said.

Keeran agreed, saying she has seen how hospice nurses and aides are limited in how much time they can serve clients. She said she sees death doulas as offering specialty services, also noting that limiting death doulas to hospice care could reduce the num ber of people the doulas can serve.

She had learned about death doulas a few years ago from a friend, she said. Following her retirement

Prioritizing education

Although she said she wants to legitimize the profession, she’s hesi tant about the idea of establishing a national certiﬁcation board for death doulas, as there currently is not one.

“I’m very hesitant to get into any kind of a role in the medical care system,” she said, explaining she worries about over-regulation. “If I were to be, like, a Medicare beneﬁt, then I would have this obligation to follow these strict rules, which really hampers my ability to meet families where they are, to serve whatever their needs are.”

“It’s this tricky thing of establish ing value while providing the service, but I really think that the future of death doulas remains outside the medical care system just because that independence and ﬂexibility, I think, is how we serve our clients the best,” Johnston said.

While Keeran was completing her training last year, she needed people to practice her skills with, Wagoner said. Wagoner volunteered, and they did the “best three months” course.

The future of death doulas

Wagoner said.

“We know it’s inevitable, so let’s work on our approach to this inevi table thing,” Johnston said. “A big part of what I do is to normalize this for people, which it seems strange to say that this thing that happens to 100% of us needs to be normalized, but it does because we don’t ever talk aboutThereit.”has been some progress, as Keeran said she remembers a time when death and grief were hardly ever talked about, especially in the 1970s.“Ihave a deep background in death. My childhood was full of death and loss,” Keeran said, explaining she was basically on her own at 19 years old. “Who I want to be now, is that person that I didn’t have, and my fam ily didn’t have when I was growing up.”The death doula profession has also evolved over time, Johnston said, and as an emerging profession, discus sions continue about how it may

Currently, death doulas are out side of the medical care system, and Johnston said she thinks it should stay that way.

“When she introduced it to me, what she was doing, it was really interesting. I was kind of surprised, but yet, at the same time, I was like, wow, that’s a really unique business and a unique way to help people,”

With this goal of educating and helping others, Keeran launched her business, Golden Heart Transi tion, this spring. She offers a range of services including grief support, doula services, end-of-life planning and coaching using the “best three months” model developed by the Conscious Dying Institute.

“I have a very signiﬁcant level of gratitude to her because she knows that I can be a different kind of chal lenge because I know too much,” Sargent said, explaining she looks at situations from every angle. “She keeps me on track.”

As educators about death and dying, both Johnston and Keeran ex pressed the importance of changing how people discuss death and dying, such as not associating it with giving up or as a failure.

Although Sargent had previously done the legal parts of planning and preparing for her death, she said she hadn’t thought about the actual time of death and the type of environment she would like.

“We don’t know when we’re going to pass unless we’ve been given that kind of diagnosis. So for me, it was really powerful and … made me feel strong about it,” Wagoner said. “It’s just a very comforting feeling, and empowering yourself to be able to ex press what you really want, because to family members sometimes, you can’t express that.”

Earlier this year, she began work ing with her friend, Karen Keeran, who recently became a death doula. Together, they began discussing Sar gent’s wishes, such as having a calm and quiet environment when she is close to passing.

in 2021, she began her six-month training with the Conscious Dying Institute, as well as began training to become a certiﬁed nurse aide. In February 2022, she also completed training through the Conscious Dying Institute as a conscious dying educator.“Knowledge and information, I’m a big believer in, reduces fear,” she said. “I want to be able to bring that planning to the fore and have that in place before we reach (the) end of life.”Amain focus for Keeran, she said, is targeting education efforts toward older generations, communicating the value of putting together an end-of-life plan and exploring topics of pain, caregiving and medical aid in dying. She also helps people learn about the variety of body disposition options available to people in Colo rado, such as water cremation.

The ﬁndings from babies involved in a mother’s milk study in Southern California go straight to the heart of a series of environmental justice and air pollution laws passed in Colorado in recent years. State lawmakers and regulators are targeting pollution concentrated in lower-income and minority neighborhoods, and overhauling permitting and transportation spending to combat what they have called historic injustice.

“Into the Woods” is an iconic piece of musical theatre. It’s a tribute to the genius storytelling of Sondheim and James Lapine that these characters we think we know take on a whole new life in relatable moments. Our production takes a new twist on the story and is set in a child’s nursery.

But decades of regulation are just starting to have an impact, and lowincome neighborhoods near reﬁneries, power plants and busy highways are much more exposed than others. Bad wildﬁre seasons like those in 2020 and 2021 wipe out a lot of progress.

The results speak to a crucial age of development where the environment “sticks with you,” the CU researchers say. They talked about the study in a week of record heat in Denver and much of Colorado, and where state ofﬁcials called another series of Ozone Action Day Alerts cautioning those in urban areas vulnerable to some forms of air pollution.

The CU study piggybacked on a mother’s milk study by genetically analyzing fecal samples from 103 primarily Latino infants in Los Angeles. Alderete learned of the cohort and was able to gain access to the genetic data while she worked on her Ph.D. at the University of Southern California. The infants’ health data was overlaid with hourly pollution samples in their area that are taken constantly by the EPA.

Those results, Alderete said, have since been replicated in a larger sample of young adults.

In the meantime, the researchers say all families should take the easiest precautions against local air pollution: avoid exercising near traffic or industrial areas, open windows or use stove vents during home cooking that may create particulates and seek a low-cost air filtration system. As always, they emphasize that moms should continue breastfeeding as long as possible, one of the most crucial ways to support a healthy baby biome and brain development.“What we do know is that breastfeeding can act as a very potent beneficial probiotic,” Alderete said.

Updated COVID-19 boosters are being rolled out at pharmacies and clinics in Colorado. Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment ofﬁcials expect the updated boosters to become more widely available in the state.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended that people who are eligible for these boosters get their shots.

Deaths, hospitalizations and positive cases have spiked every fall since the pandemic began in 2020, according to state health department data. And the omicron variant fueled a massive spike in cases earlier this year.

In both 2020 and 2021, as kids returned to classes and pumpkin-spiced lattes emerged from their caffeinated hidey-holes, COVID cases began to rise in the state. By this time last year, reports of new coronavirus infections had already been climbing for more than a month. In 2020, infections began rising in the first week of September. In both years, the trends peaked in November in Colorado, part of a mysterious seasonality to the rhythm of the virus.

The state has confirmed a smattering of infections from the BA.4.6 variant, and the BA.2.75 variant has been detected in wastewater samples, indicating it may be spreading, as well. Samet said those variants bear watching. But, so far, they haven’t shown signs of being monsters, he said.

And Samet said there’s another reason for optimism this fall: Just because cases have surged the previous two years doesn’t mean they’re destined to again this year. Yes, as kids go back to school and cooler weather means people begin to move indoors more, opportunities for transmission increase. But there’s also a lot we don’t know about how and when COVID spreads. After all, while the pandemic seems interminable, our studying of COVID has been relatively brief.“We really only have two falls under our belt,” Samet said. “I would be careful about generalizing.”

Colorado reported about 6,200 new coronavirus infections last week, a decline of more than 1,000 cases from the week prior. There were 464 patients admitted to the hospital with coronavirus infections last week, down by about 4% from the week before.

“Everything is going in the right direction,” he said. “Hospitalizations are down. Wastewater levels are down. Percent positivity (of COVID tests) is down. So as we head into the fall, we are in good shape.”

Fall is COVID season in Colorado

The reason Samet feels reasonably confident that these positive trends will continue is that the state has been taking a beating from the omicron gang of coronavirus variants for the past nine months and, before that, dealt with a punishing wave of infections caused by the delta variant.Those successive waves mean a lot of folks in Colorado have been exposed or been infected in the past year, giving the state

In Samet’s view, that level of community immunity should be able to stave off the fall surge that Colorado saw in 2020 and 2021 — at least for a couple more months, if not longer.

Dr. Rachel Herlihy, the state epidemiologist, said last week the state is seeing “a sustained decline in cases.” The infections that are occurring are largely due to the omicron BA.5 variant, she said. But Colorado has seen newer variants pop up, as well.

Denver Zoo leaders have worked earnestly over the last few years to diversify their staff and visitors, continuing on a journey toward equity that was renewed last summer, when the zoo took responsibility for the death of a Black man who was tackled and tasered by police in 2011 while he suffered from heat stroke.

Ashley died after a zoo volunteer felt he was acting strangely and then called police. It was later determined that Ashley was suffering from heat stroke. He died from cardiorespiratory arrest brought on by heat, dehydration and exertion during a struggle with police who had restrained and tasered him.

Zoo leaders stayed relatively quiet for years after Alonzo Ashley died, but were thrust into a local debate about diversity, equity and inclusion after his death, before the topic came up again following George Floyd’s death, and then once more during the Black Lives Matter protests that followed in 2020.

“All of those things led to the creation of the steering committee, and to where we are today with our new strategic plan, and the personnel we have in place,” said Jake Kubie, director of communications at the Denver Zoo. “It’s all connected,”

It was an important gesture that is part of Vescolani’s strategic vision for the zoo, which includes diversify-

sible recruitment and hiring process for early career professionals. Some of the money was used to create a paid internship program to help recruit young people of color who are hoping to break into careers in the zoological and wildlife conservation

Some of the zoo’s equity work is focused on training staff who provide services to guests. These frontline workers will soon be trained in mental health ﬁrst aid, a course that gives people with little or no experience in behavioral health the tools they need to recognize the signs and symptoms of a mental health crisis and then lead the distressed person to adequate services. Security staff will continue to be trained to use de-escalation techniques in a course that will include a segment about how biases can impact how a person views a threat to help mitigate incidents similar the one that led to Ashley’s death.

Zoo leaders are revamping their interviewing process to mitigate bias and create a culture where leaders can engage and manage a diverse team. There’s a focus throughout the organization on preparing leaders for diversity and ensuring guests, volunteers and employees feel that they are a part of the team, including by ensuring that workplace meetings are more accessible for people withTeens,disabilities.olderadults, people of color and people with disabilities are among the main groups the zoo is trying to engage to increase diversity. Each year, the zoo is now hosting a sensory night, where all ﬂashing lights and music are disabled, speciﬁcally designed to welcome people with sensory processing disorders.

Denver Zoo leaders attribute the lack of racial diversity in the industry to too few opportunities for paid internships at a time when a racial wealth gap makes it hard for interns of color to take low paying jobs.

“We’re doing the work, and we’re looking at systemic change, and not just meeting quotas.”

These historical events coupled with a sense that people of color are not welcomed in the outdoors because of lacking representation has created distrust in the zoo and

“We are always looking at the barriers that prevent our community from visiting, and there are many barriers: there’s cost barriers, or psychological barriers, there’s emotional barriers, there’s people who don’t like zoos and are not going to agree with us, which is really where my department comes in to really tell people why zoos are important and what we do for wildlife conservation,” he said.

The Denver Zoo is a high proﬁle, visible organization where staff are the catalysts for making connections between guests, animals and the rest of nature, Kubie said.

“Thatdo.” is the central theme of our work,” she added. “It is internally focused, so we can be more representative of the community, but also externally focused, so that when people engage with the zoo, they feel seen, and they feel like their identities are taken into consideration when we create exhibits, when we make updates, when we put information out on social media. We want everyone to feel like they have a role in saving wildlife for future generations.”

The vast majority of animals there are born and bred within a zoo setting in species survival programs to help conserve threatened, vulnerable and endangered species with an intent to eventually release them into the wild, he added.

The Denver Zoo has nearly 2 million guests per year who visit about 3,000 animals representing about 450 species. Zoos build empathy and curiosity for children who visit and create educational opportunities for adult patrons, Alfred said.

The demographics of the zoo’s staff and visitors are not reﬂective of the area, a concern for organization leaders. Of the 406 employees working at the Denver Zoo, 19% are people of color.

More than a decade after Ashley died at the zoo, organization leaders say they’re still on the journey toward creating a more diverse and equitable Denver Zoo.

But zoos haven’t always bathed in glory. In the 19th and 20th centuries, human zoos were prominent across the U.S., and other parts of the world, where people of color were displayed in zoos, fairs and museums as living exhibits. White visitors would pet and photograph the people on display for having features they deemed unusual.

“I think there’s a case to be made for the likelihood of that increasing if a Black elementary school kid sees a Black vet tech or veterinarian or zookeeper,” he said.

Any time Cherokee Trail seemed to get a little of offensive momentum the Rebels’ defense put an end to that in a hurry. Columbine — No. 5 in the CHSAANow.com Class 5A football rankings — methodically slugged its way to a 35-7 victory over the visiting Cougars.

Rebels’ ace Korbe Otis didn’t play her senior season due to injury. The Rebels went 8-8 during the COVID season, but had a big bounce back last year going 25-4 that included an 18-game winning steak and state runner-up.“She(Ogden) just gets better and better. She is an elite pitcher,” Santaniello said. “We do need to rely on some other pitchers and Liz did a great job today.”

Cherokee Trail was forced to punt. Columbine showed off its 2-minute offense with a 46-yard scoring drive that took six plays and ended in a 16-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Brayden Harvey to Spencer Houle to open up a 21-0 lead with 39 second left before halftime.

“The defense played hard and made some good plays,” Columbine coach Andy Lowry said. “Will Schraeder had his second blocked punt in three games. He is going 100 mph.”Schraeder set up the second touchdown pass of the game for Harvey that gave the Rebels a 35-0 lead. It looked like the Rebels would go in for another score to make it a running clock late in the third quarter, but a fumble by Columbine gave the ball back to the Cougars and ended the consecutive drive scoring streak at ﬁve for the Columbine’sRebels.offense was forced to punt on its ﬁrst possession, but preceded to score touchdowns on its

Columbine ﬁnished off the tournament Sept. 10, by winning the Dave Sanders with victories over Brighton and Windsor. The Rebels head into 5A Jeffco League play this week. The Rebels were slated to host Arvada West Sept. 14.

Ogden had a 21-3 record last year with a 2.25 ERA. Her ERA after the win against the Golden Eagles is 0.52.“I’m ready for that mindset of being in stressful situations,” said Ogden, who begins here third year

Senior running back Marquane Taylor was a scoring machine with three touchdown runs — 4, 6 and 15 yards — to spearhead the running attack that the Cougars couldn’t stop.“It was pretty nice,” Taylor said of his three scores. “I really didn’t think I’d get three touchdowns today. It just happened.”
