TOUGH KINDNESS

Riverdale Ridge’s Meriah Gonzales, left and Severance’s Lauren Mahugh are in a serious tussle for the loose ball during the teams’ 4A/3A Longs Peak League game in Thornton April 19. RRHS scored three goals on its first three shots and won the match 9-0. It also was the Ravens’ annual kindness night. Players put pen to paper and explained what kindness means to them. Their thoughts were posted on a fence behind the team’s bench during the game. More on each facet of the game is PHOTO BY STEVE SMITH available online at www.northglenn-thorntonsentinel.com.

Colorado’s 1st youth TEDx event to be held April 30 BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A Shark Tank contestant. An entrepreneur. A 16-yearold junior in high school. These all describe Jack Bonneau, but most recently he is the organizer of the TEDxYouth@CherryCreek event Bonneau that will take place on April 30 at Legacy High School in Broomfield. “I really wanted to give you the opportunity to share their ideas just like I had,” he said. Bonneau has presented two Ted Talks in the past. One was about how kids can be their own role models and another on the importance of youth entrepreneurship in today’s education.

He dipped his toes into the business world at age eight when he started Jack’s Stands and Marketplaces sold lemonade, ice tea and other young entrepreneur’s products. The motivation was a LEGO Star Wars Death Star his father told him he had to buy with his own money. His latest business is called Teen Hustl, which is a last-mile delivery service delivering packages, restaurant food, groceries and more all on electric scooters and bikes. Now, he’s organizing the first youth TEDx event in Colorado with 17 students presenting on a wide variety of subjects, including happiness as a service, pronouns, the future of artificial intelligence and more.

County clerks reassure voters while watching for cyber attacks Officials push back against fraud claims, stay alert BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While local counties’ clerks and recorders say they are still taking steps to unravel false claims of widespread election fraud two years after the 2020 presidential election and ahead of the June

primaries, they are also on the lookout for potential cyberattacks after warnings from President Joe Biden that such attacks are increasingly likely. “It’s definitely nervewracking, but something that we are starting to get used to,” Adams County Clerk and Recorder Josh Zygielbaum said. “It’s the world we live in now, and we do everything we can to protect the system and to protect ourselves and our SEE ELECTION, P5

Airport boss sees electric airplanes helping county’s lead problem BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport Director Paul Anslow foresees electric airplanes coming to the skies soon. They can help with complaints from neighbors, like lead coming from the airport. Anslow said electric planes are in production and he thinks it will take three years before the manufacturer starts hitting the market. But once they are available, he said they will rapidly take over the market because the cost of operating an electric plane is much lower. Anticipation for the electric planes is high. Two flight schools at the airport — which almost solely use leaded fuel now — have each pre-ordered 20 electric planes, Anslow said. Right now, the airport is trying to acquire grants to build charging stations so once those electric planes are available, the airport is ready to host them. Hoping for change Since the aircraft would rely on electricity, they can help decrease the amount of lead coming from the airport. Residents have raised concerns over lead coming from the airport since 2019. In 2021, a study in California revealed that lead levels in children’s blood increase the closer they are to airports that rely on leaded fuels, leading Santa Clara County to ban the sale of leaded aircraft fuel. According to the 2017 EPA Na-

tional Emissions Inventory, Colorado has five airports of the top 100 lead-emitting airports nationally, including the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (Jeffco Airport), which sits at 63. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, District 1 County Commissioner for Jefferson County, said she understands perspectives from residents concerning leaded fuel at the airport. However, she has learned from her time as commissioner about how little power the airport actually has. “Before (I became commissioner,) I thought ‘of course, the airport has the power to do stuff,” she said. But she learned that the airport is

like a highway. “If I want to say to you, or if you say to me, ‘I don’t want red trucks to be driving down the highway,’ Oh, no, we’re not able to do that,” she said. Paul Anslow, the director of the airport, said he manages more than 350 leases for the hangars pilots can rent. He can’t discriminate against who he rents to. “We don’t have the ability to say, do you use unleaded gas? No? you can’t land here,” said Kraft-Tharp. Kraft-Tharp said commissioners have not considered banning the sale of leaded fuel from the airport and Anslow said the airport would

lose about 40% of its business. KraftTharp also emphasized that the airport is market-based — if each plane that landed at the airport wanted unleaded fuel, then the airport would start selling unleaded fuel. According to Julie Story, a spokesperson for Jefferson County, Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport provides more than 3,000 jobs totaling $190 million in annual pay, more than $700 million in annual business revenues to the region and approximately $27 billion in indirect annual economic value, according to the Colorado Department of TransportaSEE AIRPORT, P3

Power lies in the community for lead from airport BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Aircraft have been relying on leaded fuels for decades, but a Jefferson County health official said he doubts there is much public officials can do about it. Jim Rada, Director of Environmental Health Services at Jefferson County Public Health, described a demand by concerned community members to have an environmental assessment for the

airport. “That is not something that the health department does. We don’t have resources or expertise or authority for that matter to do any kind of an environmental assessment around the airport,” he said. Charlene Willey of the Save Our Skies Alliance said she contacted the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and was told they can’t do anything about the lead, but doubts that answer.

“I don’t think they want to do anything about it,” she said. That doesn’t mean the community can’t act, Rada said, “If the folks in that vicinity of the airport were to have their child’s blood lead levels tested, we could do follow-up work through our communicable disease group,” Rada said. “If there are multiple people showing elevated blood lead levels, in that case, the State Health Department’s environmental

epidemiology group would likely be involved.” Rada said he was unsure of how airport traffic and other variables impact toxicology. “Toxicology involves how an individual is exposed and how frequently, and how much, and for what duration,” he said. “The fact that it’s being emitted from the engines of those planes doesn’t mean that people are being exposed to it.” Since there has been no specific study done, he said

officials need more information. S “Unless there’s a lot of additional studies done, it’s v going to be hard to determine if there’s really a problem or s w not,” he said. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, District w 1 County Commissioner for m Jefferson County, and Paul T Anslow, director of Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Air- h port said they would support b a study to be done on RMMA, potentially from a researcher at a Colorado university.

Westminster council signals support for entertainment districts BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster city council agreed April 18 to bring forward an ordinance that would create entertainment districts in the city. The ordinance would come to the council on May 9. “I’m very pleased to see this come forward,” said Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott. He said he has been interested in creating an entertainment district since 2018. The two proposed area boundaries would be The Orchard Town Center district, which would be bordered by 147th Ave. on the north, 144th Avenue on the south, I-25 on the east and Huron Street on the West. The downtown entertainment district would be bordered by 91st Place on the north, 88th Avenue on the south, East Park on the east and the retail center west of Harlan street on the west. Lindsey Kimball, economic development director, said previous year’s special events, like the Orchard Concert Series and the Latino Festival, could take place in the districts. Regular events and events that are more frequent, such as Barks and Brews on Fridays, could as well, Kimball said. “It draws people back and brings familiarity,” she said. Kimball said an entertainment district is meant to be a community gathering space for concerts,

tion’s 2020 Aeronautics Economic Impact Study. “That would be a huge amount of people that would be pounding down the doors of the county building saying, ‘why are you doing this,’” Anslow said. The bigger question, Kraft-Tharp said, is what the Environmental Protection Agency and the Federal Aviation Administration are doing. In a statement, the FAA said it is working on the problem and the EPA is currently investigating the effects of emissions from pistonengine aircraft on leaded fuel on public health and welfare. “The FAA is committed to building a cleaner, quieter and more

‘It draws people back and brings familiarity.’ Lindsey Kimball, Westminster economic development director activities, festivals and more and could help improve business. Other cities in Colorado have taken advantage of them, including Aurora, Black Hawk, Denver, Fort Collins, Greeley and more. “It’s driving business to our restaurants and retailers,” she said. The districts can’t be larger than 100 acres and must contain two premises licensed to serve alcohol that would work together to create a common consumption area. The State and city of Westminster would carry out frequent compliance checks, according to Ron Arguello, assistant city attorney Beverages served at events in the districts could be no more than 16 ounces and each cup must bear the logo of the vendor. Net-zero discussion Westminster City Councilor Sarah Nurmela asked if any of the

events would be net-zero energy or zero waste, and pointed to events in the past that included these measures. Interim City Manager Jody Andrews said that since the city hasn’t had events in so long due to COVID-19, staff will circle back to that. Mayor Nancy McNally asked that the city look past the zero-waste requirement if a vendor cannot adhere to the policy, since global supply chain issues can impact a business’s ability to do so. “It’s out of their control right now,” she said. DeMott said the council is not in a place to demand that of the ven-

dors, but it should be encouraged. The authority to create an entertainment district comes from state statutes that allow cities to do so. Arguello said an entertainment district would help reduce the burden of regular events applying for special permits each year since their information will already be on file. The council can also put parameters on the districts, such as as requiring events end at 9 p.m. due to residents living nearby. That’s a good thing, McNally said. “Good neighbors are good things and it means having time limits,” she said.

He hopes it’s the first of a potential annual event that would be hosted at different high schools each year. The students go through professional training on how to give a Ted Talk.

sustainable aviation system. This includes transitioning to leadfree fuel for about 190,000 general aviation aircraft. Achieving this requires that we find a solution that protects public health while also maintaining or enhancing safety for the general aviation fleet,” the statement said. That’s where the electric planes could come in, Kraft-Tharp said. Kraft-Tharp said the airport is part of the community. She said that her favorite sight at the airport are Dads taking their kids to the airport, buying donuts and sitting in the grass to watch the planes take off. “People stand all day long in their yards watching the planes go over,” Kraft-Tharp said.

Human connection unspoken “glue” of a successful housing program, officials say BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Josh E. was experiencing homelessness in Denver before he joined Northglenn’s temporary winter housing program at the old recreation center. In fact, he caught COVID-19 and was housed by one of Denver’s respite programs. He didn’t want to head back to a typical homeless shelter. “I just really was not looking forward to going back to that full homeless shelter that just cuts you loose in the morning,” he said. He referred himself to Northglenn’s program and was welcomed on the first night. Now, he is fully housed. Part of Northglenn’s winter housing program, which was extended through Aug. 31 on March 28, require’s participants to have a connection to daytime activities, such as a job, job training, working with counselors or the like. The Denver Rescue Mission operates the program and case management is available. As of March 28, two program participants are fully housed, two have identified housing and seven identified housing support, which can be transitional housing or reconnecting with family or friends. Josh is employed as a delivery person and was able to find housing due to the program. He said the

program provided him time, energy and resources to be able to sit down and find housing. Jessica Hulse, the Crisis Response Unit Program Manager for Northglenn, emphasized the amount of stress those experiencing homelessness commonly endure translates into less ability to find housing. She said some folks have a job and are ready to find housing, but applications, research, time and stress prohibit it. Removing the stress frees up parts of the brain to focus on the goal. “Instead of self preservation, ‘where do I want to go’ that shift in thinking, ‘what do I want to be doing and how can I be doing?’” she said. Help for those caught in between Josh was in a certain tier of homelessness — the second tier — that the progam mostly addresses. That tier, Hulse explained, is between two weeks and a year. Often, these folks may have lost a job or experienced a disturbance in a family unit, but every situation is unique. “They can make appointments and keep their typical life going, they just don’t have that house anymore, but they can keep their belongings safe,” she said. The program also helps tier-one individuals, who have been homeless for less than two weeks. Josh Geppalt, Vice President of

Operations for the Denver Rescue Mission, said the number of people experiencing homelessness in that second tier is “a much higher percentage than we would assume.” “There’s even a chronic homeless population that you can see here in Northglenn,” he said. “But that does not represent the reality. I think the majority of folks are in that tier one, tier two that both have interest and capacity to improve their situations and just need the stability of a safe place to be.” A successful program Nothing but praise has come from Northglenn’s city council regarding the program. “I’ve not seen a project in this city that has gained so much enthusiasm from the public,” former City Councilor Julie Duran Mullica said at a Feb. 28 meeting. “I think this has truly been an impactful pilot program,” said Northglenn Mayor Pro Tem Jenny Wilford at a March 28 meeting. Geppalt explained the small size and personal connections are what make the program successful. “If nothing else, the idea of having a person who’s advocating for you, I mean, we all want people that are in our corner,” he said. “And so, I think that oftentimes is the unspoken glue to a lot of these programs. It’s just those key relationships and that can be.” He also said the connection between the city staff and community volunteers who contribute to the program makes the participants feel more part of the community, rather than a blight. Compared to other programs, he said that many times the huge warehouse, big-box responses to homelessness don’t cut it for longterm solutions. Smaller 25-person programs are more individualized and the surrounding community is more likely to approve of a small program. Establishing a human connection helps people tremendously, Hulse

B Josh E. explained that he felt like he was part of the community when he was a participant and often f a wants to come back to visit. Hulse said that this sense of com- w munity helps participants with long-r i term housing, because resources aren’t the only thing those experi- t encing homelessness need. f “We can’t just say services, it doesn’t work, we need a life to move L into,” Hulse said. “This is more than the sum of just Medicaid and food t stamps. They need community and f belonging to become truly stable.” r t Deputy Chief of Police Randall Darlin said this program gives the police a resource to help those expe- t riencing homelessness. “Oftentimes when these programs don’t exist, there are no services that the police can provide to the homeless, especially the chronic homeless,’’ he said. “There isn’t that follow-up, wrap-up service offered by every municipality where we can use case management and other ser- b vices to provide for the individuals.”s He said that providing a roof for s folks doesn’t cut it because that is t not the reason they are experiencingt homelessness.

workers and our voters.” The cybersecurity threat level is similar to past elections, or the worst-case scenarios election offices have prepared for, metro area clerks said. “There is no question right now, every agency is indicating that the risk of Russian initiated cyber security threats has increased,” Jefferson County Clerk and Recorder George Stern said. But Stern said “long before we had internal threats to our elections,” cybersecurity and the security of election from foreign interference “has been top of mind,” Stern said. Regular probes from countries including Russia, Iran, North Korea and others are directed toward state and local election offices, looking for vulnerability in the system. Clerks said their offices partner with homeland security, the FBI, and state and local departments to monitor cyberthreats. “If something viable looks as if it’s surfacing, we are notified about it and we can respond,” Zygielbaum said. “We employ the most modern protection from a technology standpoint that there is out there.” Staff go through cybersecurity training “every single election” regardless of how many times they have received it, Stern said. That helps staff recognize what attacks might look like. All equipment requires two-factor verification, and there is a paper trail for each ballot. “That can prove accurate results, and a successful election,” Stern said. Douglas County Clerk and Recorder Merlin Klotz declined to speak for this story. Klotz is one of several public officials who sued the secretary of state because of a software update the state conducted on county election equipment. The suit seeks to see if the update deleted any data, a claim the secretary of state’s office refuted in a motion to dismiss the suit. Boosting transparency The Adams, Arapahoe and Jefferson County clerks said while they are working to mend relationships with voters who doubt election security, they emphatically believe those individuals are a small minority of the electorate. “We still receive plenty of emails from people who believe the Big Lie,” Zygielbaum said. Clerks said they receive form letters, copied-and-pasted arguments from people who appear to be local residents but also people outside their county borders. “Just perpetuating the false narratives that the elections were fraudu-

“Typically, there has been a pretty big disruption with a key relationship, whether that be a parent, a spouse, a child, somewhere along the way there has been a key disruption,” said Hulse. “When you start to criminalize homelessness, you’re utilizing the statutes in the wrong way,” Darlin said.

lent,” Zygielbaum said. The letters come in waves. A spate of several in one day, followed by a lull. “It’s important for our staff, for election judges, and for voters,” Stern said, “to understand that we are discussing conspiracy theories here and that the vast, vast majority of people in Colorado understand our elections are secure.” Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder Joan Lopez emphasized the election system is not connected to the internet, and that she believes voters trust their local elections system. “We have gone above and beyond to make sure that they are informed,” Lopez said. Lopez estimated that people who doubt election security account for about 1% of Colorado’s population. That doesn’t mean offices have eased efforts to boost faith in U.S. elections. County clerks’ offices have expanded or created additional designated webpages to educate people about the life of a ballot and how local elections function. As “forensic audit” became a buzzword last year, Lopez said, the office tried to assuage people’s concerns by encouraging them to see the see the process firsthand. “I’m telling you, once somebody goes through a tour, they really go ‘Wow, I can’t believe all you guys do,’” Lopez said. When Stern encounters people who doubt election security, he says “I invite them in.” “What I find is that they are convinced that something is wrong because they heard it from someone who said something about a report that had some data from somewhere,” Stern said. During elections, the office offers “a tour of every single aspect of it while it’s happening,” Stern said. “I personally lead them. We invite anyone in who wants to see the process up close,” Stern said. Zygielbaum stresses that election equipment watching is conducted by bipartisan teams. Audits are performed during elections to ensure accuracy. They also host tours for anyone who wants one. “We stick to the facts, and hopefully the truth will prevail,” Zygielbaum said. Physical safety Domestic threats toward election staff’s safety, stoked by conspiracies about a stolen election, have simmered down, clerks said, and numerous election related bills were introduced during the 2022 Colorado legislative session. “We have heard from cowardly people sitting behind their computer screens over the course of the last year who are threating election workers — Colorado residents with families and kids — because of Bettering themselves Volunteers of the program Diana and Terry Wadding said what they have learned from the program. “There are some people that are willing to go through a program to better help themselves,” Diana Wadding said. “These are people that are on the cusp of making it and just need that extra hand up,” Terry Wadding said.

something they heard about election integrity and have no proof of,” Stern said. “It’s sick. It’s oftentimes illegal and we are always reporting it to law enforcement agencies, but it just needs to stop.” Stern said his staff is as politically diverse as the bipartisan election judging teams who work during an election. “They are Republicans, they are Democrats, they are unaffiliated members, and they are getting threats in equal numbers,” he said. “It is hard on morale. It is hard for us to get good applicants to want to be in this space.” Stern said he could not confidently say if turnover in his office is attributable to threats, but that the majority of his office is committed to the job despite sometimes facing an intimidating climate. “The more they hear from cowards, the more they want to stick with this work so that we aren’t letting the cowards win,” he said. “We hear the noise,” Stern said, adding he staunchly believes threatening people are a fringe minority in the state and are not representative of Colorado voters. “Someone threatening your life resonates a lot more loudly than the five people who told you you’re doing a good job,” he said. Lopez watched with relief as the Vote Without Fear Act was passed by the state legislature. In the November 2020 election, two men came to the ballot box at county offices, filming voters who came to drop off their ballot. One of them openly carried a firearm. “He was very hostile any time somebody approached him and said

what are you doing,” Lopez said of her staff’s attempts to speak with the men. “Every voter that came in had to pass this gentleman,” she said. With no laws prohibiting his conduct, staff’s hands were tied, Lopez said. House Bill 22-1086, signed into law on March 30, now prevents someone from openly carrying a firearm within any polling location or within 100 feet of a ballot drop box while an election is underway. The Adams County Clerk and Recorder’s Office is undergoing construction to heighten security. Until now people seeking services from elections staff had to go inside the election office. Now the county is installing window desks similar to what people might see at the DMV, Zygielbaum said. Closer to Election Day, Zygielbaum will wear a bulletproof vest. His election staff also underwent active shooter training. “That was a direct response to 2020,” he said. Zygielbaum said he expects active shooter training to become an annual practice in collaboration with the Adams County Sheriff’s Office. He called the process eye-opening for his office. Most his employees have been in elections for most their career. “This is something that is new to all of us. We used to be able to go to work and run elections under the assumption that we would all go home at the end of the day. And that’s changed,” he said. “Something that is supposed to be the foundation for our American institution is under attack.”

How state youth use free mental health service BY DANA KNOWLES, BRIAN WILLIE ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

Anaisa Lua does her best to create a welcoming and safe space for her clients. A quote framed and hanging on her office wall sums it up: “Vulnerability is the courage to show up and be seen.” “Therapy allows a space for people to feel accepted and understood. I feel that it’s a space for them to truly be their genuine selves. Sometimes they share about walking in the world and having to hide,” said Lua. Lua is a therapist working with I Matter Colorado, a program that provides funding for six free therapy sessions for all young people in Colorado under the age of 18 (under 21 for those receiving special education services). Often times, therapy can cost anywhere from $100 to $150 per hour and Lua says I Matter Colorado helps eliminate that financial barrier. “Especially if you have multiple children and you’d like all of them to get services, you might feel like you need to prioritize one versus the other,” said Lua. I Matter is the state’s response to a growing mental health crisis facing so many young people who are trying to navigate life during a

pandemic. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, mental health emergency room visits increased from 2019 to 2020 by 25% for young people aged 5-11 and 31% for adolescents aged 12-17. The leading cause of death for people aged 10 to 24 in Colorado is suicide. Aarav Varma is a 16-yearold sophomore in high school. He said the isolation he experienced during school lockdowns was almost

unbearable, “COVID shaped me as a person and it tore me apart being online — it hurt so much I was feeling down every day.” Varma found out about I Matter Colorado through school. “I had to use I Matter because I was feeling a little bit sad being online over the last year, it really took part of me away being on Zoom calls eight hours a day,” Varma said. The program is the first of its kind in the country.

Governor Jared Polis signed a bipartisan bill this past July that provided $9 million to the Colorado Department of Human Services, Office of Behavioral Health to facilitate I Matter. So far 1,923 youth have utilized one session, 1,221 have had two sessions, and 753 have had three or more sessions. 141 therapists are available. Lua said one of the best parts of the program is that the kids get to choose their own therapists, giving them a

sense of autonomy. “They are able to log on themselves and they are able to read through the profiles of the clinicians and they decide who they feel connected to and who they want to see,” she explained. For Varma, the I Matter sessions helped him feel less isolated. “We do have a ray of hope, there’s a ray of light that we can see finally. We are not alone in this. I Matter is the true thing that can help kids feel like they are not alone. No one is ever alone,” he said. Now that Varma is going to school in person, he can get back to exploring some of the things he loves like graphic design, chemistry and creating things. He says he might go into the psychiatric field when he grows up to help other people with their mental health struggles. Currently, a bill is making its way through the state legislature that would extend the program two extra years if it passes.

Bill aims to prevent runaways, improve mental health results Focus on foster care, residential centers BY JENNIFER BROWN THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado would have to create new standards for residential centers that house foster children as well as examine how best to prevent kids from running away from those centers under a new legislative proposal. The bill follows high-profile scrutiny of the 24/7 residential centers, including a joint Colorado Sun/9News investigation that found that children and teens are running away daily and that two boys who ran away from different facilities were struck by cars and killed. The legislation from Rep. Dafna Michaelson Jenet, a Democrat from Commerce City, would require the state to partner with a university to build the new qualityassurance system. And it would require a public, online dashboard where parents and others could see whether centers are safe and are improving kids’ mental health. In addition, the state would have to create a task force of experts, former foster youth and child welfare officials to examine why children run away and how to prevent them from fleeing residential care. The bill proposes to name the panel after Timmy MontoyaKloepfel, who was 12 when he ran away from Tennyson Center for Children in Denver in June 2020 and died after he was hit by a Chevy Tahoe. The legislation was crafted by a team of child advocates including Colorado Child Protection Ombudsman Stephanie Villafuerte, who has been seeking change at residential institutions

since 2019, when she called for a public website similar to the state’s day care center website that would offer data on outcomes. “Where is our sense of urgency for children who have severe behavioral health issues that are in an isolated, 24-hour, seven-daya-week facility?” she said in an interview, after the legislation was introduced. “We have been alerted — between citizens calling our office and people responding to news media articles — and three years later, we still have not designed a system that would show us what’s going on in those facilities. “I think it’s unconscionable. I’m exhausted by systems that put adults’ needs, our bureaucracies, our budgets and everything before the needs of kids. And this is one of those issues.” Villafuerte studied a new quality-assurance system for Florida youth residential centers, which that state created in partnership with Florida State University child welfare experts. The ombudsman said she already has consulted with social scientists at the University of Denver and Colorado State University. The requirement that the state would partner with an institution of higher education means that the state child welfare division, within the Colorado Department of Human Services, would not have sole responsibility for designing the new evaluation system. It’s another sign of mounting frustration between the ombudsman’s office and the state department, which initiated a task force to address the runaway problems after The Sun/9News investigation but has not sought any major policy changes. The news organizations found that in a three-year timeframe, Denver police

were called to Tennyson Center for Children 938 times, one-third of the time because a child ran away. Denver police were called to Mount Saint Vincent about twice per week throughout 2019 and 2020, so often that the police department told the residential center it was not a “taxi service” to bring back runaway children. Similar to Timmy, 15-yearold Andrew Potter was killed in 2018 after running away from Devereux Cleo Wallace in Westminster. He died after being struck by a suspected drunk driver on Wadsworth Parkway. The state child welfare division keeps track of how many foster children run away from foster homes and residential centers, but not many other details about those cases. “When they run, this state has no consistency on how we locate them, when we bring them back, the treatment or evaluations that they should receive,” Villafuerte said. “And at this point, I can’t even tell you the exact number of youth in our state who have run from out-of-home placements, foster care, residential treatment facilities, how long they’ve been gone, when they returned and what happened to them while they were on the run.” The task force, which would include young people who spent time in residential facilities, would consider ideas to prevent kids from running away, and to prevent kids from running into harm on the streets. For example, residential centers could make sure children with a history of running away have phone numbers to call for help. Also, the state could set up a standard protocol for kids who have returned from running away to make sure they get proper mental health treatment.

The group also could review current state regulations that restrict when staff can physically restrain a child. The scrutiny of residential centers comes as many centers have shut down in Colorado. Since 2007, 44 facilities have closed, a loss of 2,200 therapeutic beds, according to the Colorado Association of Family and Children’s Agencies. The closures follow a nationwide call by child advocates and federal officials that more children should live in foster families or with relatives, rather than institutions. But now Colorado has a severe shortage of options for kids with the most acute behavioral health issues, meaning kids are sent out of state for treatment, a situation the child protection ombudsman called “unacceptable.” “In extraordinary circumstances, these facilities are necessary,” Villafuerte said. “They are important for a very small segment of our youth to get the care that they need.” The proposal says the new

quality-assurance system would go into place by July 2026, with a preliminary report due next year. The bill is the latest from Michaelson Jenet to tackle the children’s mental health crisis. Another piece of legislation she introduced this session would allow county child welfare divisions to set up agreements with local agencies that could take in children who have been picked up by law enforcement but cannot go home. That bill arose after counties said children were sleeping in county buildings and waiting hours in the back of police cars when they had no family to house them or it wasn’t safe to bring them home.

Colorado lawmakers plan to overhaul unemployment system Lawmakers and lobbyists are seen at the Capitol on Jan. 12 in Denver at the start of Colorado’s General Assembly’s 2022 session. PHOTO

BY TAMARA CHUANG AND JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado lawmakers are planning to introduce a bill as soon as this week that would overhaul the state’s unemployment system and also send roughly $600 million to the depleted unemployment insurance trust fund to lower a $1 billion federal debt hanging over employers. The $600 million replenishment was expected — Gov. Jared Polis made the recommendation in November — but the changes to the unemployment system are a surprise that comes after months of behind-the-scenes negotiations between lawmakers, Polis’ office, the business community and progressive fiscal groups. Many of the systemic changes proposed in the forthcoming bill are extensions of temporary changes made during the pandemic. Some details are still being negotiated, but the alterations are slated to include continuing a COVID-era fund offering unemployment benefits to people living in the U.S. illegally who aren’t eligible for aid under federal law, as well as making permanent a change allowing people to collect more benefits even if they secure part-time work. “We have a number of provisions that were put in on a temporary basis during the pandemic that have worked really well for the state and have helped families get back on their feet,” said state Sen. Chris Hansen, a Denver Democrat who will be a prime sponsor of the bill. “We think it’s a good idea to make many of them ongoing.” Hansen said the legislation is expected to have bipartisan support in both the House and Senate, though Republican sponsors in both chambers haven’t been finalized. While Republicans have called for eliminating the full $1 billion debt owed to the federal government by the trust fund, the business community appears happy with where the legislation is headed. “The $600 million is a huge win for employers across the state,” said Loren Furman, president of the Colorado Chamber of Commerce. Employers, who are solely responsible for filling the trust fund, are paying more this year in unemployment insurance premiums. But they face even higher payments in 2023 because of the deficit, caused by the federal government keeping Colorado afloat during the pandemic. Insolvency surcharges won’t stop until the trust fund fills its $1 billion hole. To get the fund fully solvent, it needs $2 billion to $2.5 billion, according to Colorado Department of Labor and Employment officials. Furman said that without the $600

million replenishment, businesses will face higher costs because of solvency surcharges and that’s not fair because they kept their businesses going through the pandemic. Companies that shut down no longer contribute, even as their workers benefited from the trust fund. Progressive organizations also say they and labor groups are pleased with the upcoming legislation. “What we’re doing with this bill is just making sure that we are as prepared for the next recession as we can be,” said Kathy White, executive director of the liberalleaning Colorado Fiscal Institute. “That includes forward funding (the trust fund) to accelerate solvency and preserving some of the policy changes that were made during the pandemic that are really targeted at making sure the program works for workers and it works for the lowest wage workers. That’s where we saw the greatest gaps.” What made it into the bill The bill’s proposed changes to the unemployment system are meant to continue what state and federal lawmakers started during the pandemic. They are designed to help low-wage unemployed workers survive in a future recession. “One of the things that we really learned through the pandemic is that the unemployment insurance system is literally the only and first line of defense that the United States has to manage recessions, to keep the economy basically from tanking and going into a vicious spiral as jobs are lost,” White said. “During the pandemic, there was a recognition by the Trump administration first and the Biden administration second … that there are just certain gaps in how well the UI system works for workers, even though it’s the most critical system we have. It’s an automatic stabilizer.” There are three key changes set to be included in the forthcoming legislation: • Colorado lawmakers created the Left Behind Worker Fund during the

pandemic to provide financial help to workers living in the U.S. unlawfully who lost their job because of COVID-19. The bill would make the fund permanent and change the name to the Benefit Recovery Fund. The goal is to help immigrants whose employers already pay their unemployment insurance but who are ineligible to receive unemployment benefits because of federal laws. The fund would not raise unemployment premiums and it would be capped. • Currently, Coloradans receive 55% of their regular pay as unemployment. But if they work part time and earn 25% or more of the weekly benefit, that benefit starts to diminish. That provision hurt employers who had to reduce their operating hours in the pandemic because it meant their employees could make more by not working. The legislation would raise the partial UI limit to 50% before the worker sees any reduction in their benefits. • Employers would be required under the bill to inform their workers that they are eligible for unemployment benefits. Three other proposed changes to the unemployment system under the legislation are still being negotiated. They would: • Eliminate the one-week waiting period between when a worker loses their job and their unemployment benefits start. White said the thinking behind this change is that low-wage earners need the money as soon as possible. The one-week delay was waived during the pandemic. • Waive a requirement that unemployed workers repay unemployment overpayments. During the pandemic, an executive order required the state labor department to pay benefits first and then check on eligibility. Because of that mandate, thousands of unemployed workers later deemed ineligible were overpaid benefits and then required to pay them back. Many had already spent the money so it became a frustrating mess. • Create dependent allowances by

offering unemployed primary caretakers $25 per week per dependent. This stands to benefit single parents or a parent who is the family’s sole income provider. This won’t be part of the proposed bill. Instead, a committee will be created to study the proposal. The idea behind the $25 per dependent comes from the federal $600 per-week pandemic unemployment supplement from Congress, which helped many workers stay afloat even as it was criticized for helping the lowest earners make more by staying jobless, White said. Colorado currently pays a maximum of $700 a week for up to 26 weeks, while some states, such as Alabama, max out at $275. Furman said the chamber and Colorado businesses have been working on the bill with state legislators and organizations like the Colorado Fiscal Institute since January. “We want to make sure that these proposals don’t take money out of the fund at the most vulnerable time,” Furman said. “So some of the provisions we’re going to do through a study, some of them might get pushed up until the fund is at a billion-dollar threshold. It’s just about putting some guardrails around them.” In a statement, Polis’ office thanked business leaders and bill sponsors who are following up on his original proposal to use $600 million to pare down the trust fund deficit. The office didn’t comment on proposed changes to the unemployment system. “We appreciate the work of the sponsors, business and workers’ advocates to move forward with a proposal that fully funds the governor’s budget request,” the statement said.

Thanks to the City Council’s request for information regarding new developments in some phases in the pipeline as well as who has the authority to decide their fate, city staff recently drew up a comprehensive list. It is well done and easy to understand. The listing covers projects large and small and all types of uses - residential, commercial, retail etc. I counted 28 new projects with 11 coming under “requires city council decision,” 16 eligible for administrative action and one requiring the planning commission’s decision.

A precursor to deciding what comes to City Council The detailed list is a precursor to City Council discussing where they wish to draw the line on what is mandated to come before them so that the public has more awareness of new developments and the opportunity to weigh in on them. In my opinion, the council would be remiss in having everything come before them. Their agendas and meetings would grow considerably. Plus, you create a dichotomy between policy and administra-

tion. The existing policy about what is eligible for administrative approval warrants a thoughtful discussion. Having the current list of projects makes the discussion all the more fruitful. We will talk about this again when it comes to a council study session. I am glad that the council wants to have this discussion based on the decisions of the prior administration’s judgment on some administrative approvals.

Time to change direction for high-school sports

he shortage of officials in high-school sports has been well-documented. A survey of state highschool associations indicated about GUEST 50,000 individuals COLUMN ended their days as Karissa Niehoff high-school officials since the 2018-19 school year. In addition to trying to interest more people in officiating high school sports, the National Federation of State High School Associations and leaders in state associations have been attempting to retain the thousands of men and women who are serving as high school sports officials. However, unacceptable behavior by coaches, parents and other spectators has pushed many officials to the sidelines. After all, why would anyone who is trying to help high-school students compete on the fields and courts want to be harassed, ridiculed and abused - sometimes even physically - while trying to do their jobs? If this current trend is going to be reversed, we must determine why people feel compelled to mistreat officials at high school sporting events. Some of those possible reasons were discussed last week in Indianapolis at the first NFHS Officials Consortium. With everyone in agreement that the officiating profession - particularly at the youth and high-school levels - is in crisis mode, leaders from all levels of sports discussed problems and shared possible solutions during the three-day meeting.

After listening to survey results from leaders with the National Association of Sports Officials that indicated continued declines in the number of officials, veteran NCAA basketball referee Chris Rastatter offered two thoughts as to why many spectators act in a negative manner toward officials. First, he said it has become commonplace for individuals involved in covering sports - radio and television announcers and other media - to dissect and judge the work of officials. As a result, with human nature being what it is, the coverage is often slanted in a negative manner. As this type of repetitive negative coverage has continued over time, it has empowered those watching sports to be judge and jury as well. If the person broadcasting a game can criticize the officials, why can’t the spectators do the same? Second, the boorish behavior of fans attending sporting events is being normalized. What used to be good-natured heckling has turned mean, insulting and violent. National surveys have shown that almost one of every two officials feel threatened after officiating a game. Unfortunately, this type of behavior is almost anticipated at sporting events. Others voiced similar sentiments during the consortium and agreed that changes are needed in the general public’s perception about men and women who officiate sports in our country. In some cases, people go to sporting events not to watch and enjoy the game but to yell at the officials. This must stop.

t t While our focus is on high-school t sports, the criticism of officials and t bad behavior of fans at the college a and professional levels has a trickle- f down effect.

I want nothing more than to see the Hyland Hills District continue the great work they have done in this community for decades. I want the community to feel heard and appreciated. I want the public to feel like they are welcome. I want to see the competent staff supported by the Board of Directors.

Don’t gamble with parks I am saddened by the high stakes “no limit” poker game going on between the Westminster Public Schools and Hyland Hills Parks and Recreation. I have spent the vast majority of my adult life working for WPS in various capacities. My kids grew up at the foot of Carroll Butts Park and immensely enjoyed the many benefits that HH offered. They both graduated from Westy High and were intrinsically involved in both the academic and

extra curricular programs WPS offered. It was a true win/win situation for them to experience the opportunities that both districts offered. In part to “give back” to both districts, I served on the HH Board of Directors for 8 years and am still a member of both Foundation BODs. These are good entities that do much for the kids and the patrons of both. They could do even more if they’d cooperate and work together as they used to. It is entirely conceivable that when the election is over the two slates of candidates will split the “chips” in this “Hold em” game as opposed to “winner take all.” Regardless, it is my hope and the hope of our family that the two camps heed the words of Indira Gandhi: “You can’t shake hands with a clenched fist” and get about doing what’s best for the kids and people that live, work and play in both districts.

school - naturally, candidates have ties to WPS. His attempts to make the connection that there is a “motive” of some candidates, all having different ties, produces an inherent conflict? That narrative is out in left field. I can’t believe Bill (or whoever has Bill’s ear?) pushed such an idea let alone opine.

Thank you, Judge Kane I previously wrote about a lawsuit brought by a few Colorado Republicans to prevent registered unaffiliated voters from voting in either the Democrat or Republican primary elections to be held on June 28.

LIFE

Despite fussy reputation, orchids are far from delicate BY DEBORAH GRIGSBY DGRIGSBY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Orchids have been around for millions of years and thrive on every continent except Antarctica. But with such a hearty ancestry, how do you keep from killing them once you bring them home from the grocery store? Whether you’ve purchased one for yourself or received one as a gift, you may be among those that find orchids intimidating. Although growing in popularity, expert growers say these exotic beauties are, perhaps, among the most misunderstood of all houseplants. A brief history of orchids Opinions on when and where orchids first appeared on earth are as varied as the plant itself. However, research points to sometime between 60 and 190 million years ago. The Chinese philosopher and statesman Confusious often wrote about orchids, immortalizing their beauty and fragrance in his poetry. Other formalized references to orchids appear in print between 350 B.C. and 287 B.C. in Theophrastus’s “Enquiry Into Plants,” an early manual that described and classified plants. In early Greece, orchids were revered as symbols of fertility, as the Greek word óchis translates as testicle, inspired by the shape of its root. In some stories, women would ingest large amounts of orchis roots if they wanted to have a son and less if they wanted a girl. Orchids eventually made their way to the wealthy in England through financed collecting expeditions. Many publications cite instances of “orchidelirium” or orchid madness during Victorian times. Voracious appetites for cultivating, selling, and trading the unusual flowers among the upper class gave rise to organized groups of collectors and early orchid publications and societies. Many rare species died en route from their native habitat or at the hands of inexperienced handlers, driving up the price exponentially. Some orchids were so soughtafter by anxious collectors that entire species were destroyed. A recent article by The Guardian’s reporter Patrick Greenfield tells of modern-day orchid smugglers in England have warranted increased security around the Kew Royal Botanic Gardens to prevent theft of rare and unusual spe cies. About that grocery store orchid Today, orchids can be found almost anywhere, including your local supermarket florist and the garden section at hardware stores. According to Althea McKinney,

Orchids often bloom in the winter, which can be very gratifying, while other outdoor plants are dormant. The 10,000 square-foot Fantasy Orchids greenhouse in Louisville, Colorado, is home to 30,000 to 50,000 orchids at any given time.

Orchids are the largest group of flowering plants on earth. Unfortunately, they are also among the most misunderstood. Their exotic blooms and aerial roots often give the impression of being demanding and challenging when it comes to care. However, orchid experts say they are one of the most resilient and longest blooming houseplants available to plant lovers of all skill levels.

Aerial roots from orchids are not uncommon. They help the plant absorb moisture and micronutrients from the air. Excessive aerial roots may indicate the orchid needs repotting.

an orchid expert and greenhouse attendant at Fantasy Orchids in

Louisville, Colorado, home to the most extensive collection of

orchids in the Rocky Mountain region, most grocery store orchids are of the Phalaenopsis variety, more commonly known as moth orchids. They are monopodial, meaning they typically grow from a single stem. But buying an orchid is the easy part, right? Well, yes. But McKinney says caring for your orchid can also be easy. She said that what gets most newly-minted orchid lovers in trouble is the care tag that comes with the orchid. McKinney said some tags instruct the owner to toss the plant in the garbage after it blooms. Other tags will say water the plant with ice cubes. “It’s really just a marketing thing,” she said. “They want to provide a cheap plant and then get you to buy another. I can tell you that watering an orchid with ice cubes will damage the root structure over time.” So what’s the secret to not killing them? McKinney says it’s simple. Orchids, by design, thrive on benign neglect. They need only water, fertilizer and sunlight. No classical music is required. To be fair, orchids are a little different than other household plants. “They grow in the same jungle as your typical snake plants, spider plants and monsteras, but those plants all grow on the jungle floor. Orchids grow up in the trees,” McKinney said. And that means watering them beckons a whole new school of thought. “If you think about it, the orchid’s roots are pretty exposed in their natural environment, so water rushes over them,” she said. “And then they dry out pretty quickly, compared to a typical houseplant that grows in soil.” But the main thing to remember is that orchids never sit in water for prolonged periods. McKinney recommends watering your new orchid by plunging it, still in its slotted plastic container, into lukewarm water. The idea is to quickly saturate everything in the pot and then let it dry out between waterings. Overwatering is among the most frequent causes of orchid deaths. “I usually suggest soaking your orchid for no more than five minutes, or just or just running water through the pot for 30 seconds,” she said. “That’s all there is to it.” And while you’re watering, think about light and fertilizer. “We fertilize every single time we water,” McKinney said. “A lot of people will come in with a plant, SEE ORCHIDS, P13

You will find connection at the Benchmark Theatre

f we’ve learned anything from the last two years, it’s that all of us, at one point or another, will get sick. It’s not an enjoyable truth to ruminate on, but one that was repeatedly proven in the midst of a global pandemic. And while playwright Noah Diaz wrote “You Will Get Sick” before COVID-19, the show’s themes have rarely been as pertinent as they are in modern times. “There’s just something about the humanity of the play,” said Christy Montour-Larson, resident guest director at Lakewood’s Benchmark Theatre. “The show has a great sense of humor and also asks the right questions about your rights when you get sick, how you get through difficult times and how social/economic status makes things difficult.” The world premiere workshop production of “You Will Get Sick” runs at The Bench at 40West, 1560 Teller St. in Lakewood, through Saturday, May 14. Performances are at 8 p.m. on Thursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday. The cast features Peter Trinh, Edith Weiss, Sonsharae Tull, Brian Kusic and Josue Miranda. A part of Benchmark’s “Aftermath”-themed 2021/2022 season, the show is told in the second person and explores how someone learns to live with a body that is consumed by sickness. As Montour-Larson explains, the show follows a man who receives

a heartbreaking diagnosis but can’t bring himself to admit it out loud. Instead, he hires a woman to tell the people in his life that he’s sick. “The play is funny at times, heartwarming at other times and Clarke Reader very thoughtprovoking,” she said. “It’s always exciting to work on new plays, because playwrights are the backbone of the American theater and we need to support new and exciting talents.” Diaz contributed to bringing the production to life and the theater made some bold storytelling choices, like staging it in the round. And the hope is audiences – the final but most important ingredient of powerful storytelling – will be moved by the story. “It’s quite an honor to share this work for the first time with the Colorado community, especially because when you go see a brand-new play, you get to be part of shaping its future,” Montour-Larson said. “I hope it stirs people’s emotions and leaves them thinking a few days later. I think we’ve all developed a kind of community hunger for that energy when a group of people are all in a room together.” Information and tickets can be found at www.benchmarktheatre. com.

A midsummer’s parking lot theatrical production Shakespeare’s words sound great almost anywhere. It’s a kind of magic trick that few others have figured out. And if you want to hear the proof, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) is bringing back its Shakespeare in the Parking Lot education program. And it’ll be stopping by the Thornton Arts & Culture Center, 9209 Dorothy Blvd., at noon on Saturday, April 30. The performance will feature an abridged production of Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” centered around a pickup truck set in the parking lot. According to provided information, the cast members are local actors and DCPA teaching artists, including Shannon Altner, Ryan Omar Stack Grant Bowman and Chloe McLeod.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Freddie Gibbs at the Fox Theatre and Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom If you’re going to talk about the best rapper alive (I know what you’re like), then Freddie Gibbs has to be in the conversation. The Gary, Indiana, MC has been releasing top notch records for nearly 20 years, but he didn’t really hit his stride until the mid-2010s, when he collaborated with Madlib on the album, “Pinata.” While Gibbs astounds every time he’s on the mic, he still doesn’t have the wide acclaim he deserves. But the positive aspect of this is you can still see him a great, intimate venues. And you’ll have two options this time around: you can see him at the Fox Theatre, 1135 13th St. in Boulder at 9 p.m. on Friday, April 29 and Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom, 2637 Welton St. in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, April 30.

and I can tell that has been 10 feet away from a window, they have not fertilized it the entire time they’ve had it—and get frustrated because they can’t get it to rebloom. Light, nutrients and proper watering is the key.” She said just follow the instructions that come with the bag of fertilizer, but don’t go crazy. Over-fertilizing can burn your orchid’s root system. Yes, but can they survive in Colorado? Orchids belong to the most prominent plant families in the world and come in many forms, shapes, sizes and colors. They have learned to thrive in various locations, including marshy bogs and mountain tops. McKinney said there are close to 20 species of orchids native to Colorado. Experts at the Denver Botanic Gardens say that number is closer to 25, albeit orchids native to Colorado are dormant most of the year and are far more diminutive than their glamorous tropical cousins. These orchids are found in moist shaded ravines and at altitudes between 8,000 and 11,000 feet. Peak bloom times range between late May and early September. Unfortunately, McKinney says Colorado’s cool, dry climate is not the biggest challenge to growing healthy orchids in the Centennial State. The biggest threat is the internet.

Like fine dust, orchid seeds float away from a seed pod. They are among the smallest seeds in the world. While it is possible to grow orchids directly from seed, it can take more than two years before any leaf growth is visible. PHOTOS BY DEBORAH GRIGSBY

“There’s a lot of misinformation floating around on the internet; much of it comes from YouTubers who don’t grow orchids in an environment like ours,” she said. “People try to mimic what people are doing on the other side of the world, which is a death sentence for these plants, which are very easy to care for.” Plants grown at Fantasy Orchids are already climatized to Colorado’s low-humidity environment.

Greenhouse attendant Althea McKinney stands among thousands of orchids at Fantasy Orchids in Louisville, one of the largest retail and wholesale orchids suppliers to the state. She said growing orchids in Colorado is not as difficult as many believe—there are approximately 20 species of orchids that are native to the Centennial State.

Women’s Bean Project celebrates rebuilding lives BY MARGARET FLEMING THE COLORADO SUN

Sabina Dyer was in a treatment center when she applied for a slot at the Women’s Bean Project in Denver. She needed a job and had heard good things about the nonprofit that uses employment to help train women for the workforce from a previous graduate of the organization. The organization hires women struggling to find employment to make and manufacture products from black bean soup to jellybeans. Dyer got the job, tried her best to show up on time and every day, and soon got promoted to a lead position. After she graduated from the program, she landed the role of shipping supervisor, a rare opportunity to be permanently hired for a job within the organization. “If I would’ve worked somewhere else, I probably would have relapsed or I would have probably went back to that lifestyle, because I wouldn’t have been happy,” Dyer said. “But I’m happy here and I feel like the work is meaningful. And it just changed my life and my perspective on life, too.” Dyer celebrated her accomplishments on April 20 at the organization’s annual fundraiser and graduation ceremony called Ready, Set, Grow. She was one of three current graduates featured in a video shown to the hundreds of supporters in the room. Beside the changes for each of the women crossing the stage, there’s another big change coming to the program in the next couple of months. The Women’s Bean Project is opening

a brand-new facility, growing to 20,000 square feet at a repurposed car dealership in Athmar Park from 10,000 at its current location at a former firehouse in Curtis Park. About 70% of a woman’s time at the Women’s Bean Project is spent working, and 30% spent in program activities — such as computer or financial literacy classes — or personal development tasks like creating a sobriety plan, CEO Tamra Ryan said. (Olivia Sun, The Colorado Sun via Report for America) The new location gives the nonprofit room to grow the number of women it serves. At the end of three years, CEO Tamra Ryan estimates they will employ a hundred women a year in full time jobs, up from about 60 women in the program now. “I would say four out of five qualified applicants, we don’t have space for currently,” Ryan said. The new facility will create jobs for the for-profit side of the organization and increase opportunities to take on jobs for other companies. Through the expansion, more women will have the chance to break out of the cycle of poverty through employment. The Women’s Bean Project has served over 1,000 women since its founding in 1989, with the intention to help them gain independence and selfsufficiency. “What we truly believe is that when you change a woman’s life, you change her family’s life,” Ryan said. “I want to hire another graduate” All the women learn the basics of food production, safety and manu-

facturing during the seven-month program. They learn to make 50 different products that are sold online and in supermarkets across the country. Participants spend their time in production, on the shipping line with Dyer, or doing a variety of other tasks. Nearly a third of the women’s paid time is spent in programming and coursework. Participants can attend trauma response groups, brush up on their math, reading and writing, enroll in computer and GED classes, get help getting a driver’s license, and receive resume and cover letter advice. On Wellness Wednesdays, speakers come in to talk about empowerment, art and community involvement. “I’ve seen a couple different women grow,” Dyer said. “And that’s what the whole mission is here, so it’s really great to watch.” All women are assigned a volunteer job coach from the community who meets with her for an hour each week. Five social work interns called participant advocates meet with the women to help address basic needs like housing, which the program does not provide. After graduating from the program, the women go on to another fulltime position. Within one year after graduation, about 95% of women are employed. Ryan said the organization prioritizes skills that can transfer to their next job after graduation. Important skills are having consistent attendance, good communication with supervisors, the ability to take direction, and being able to pay attention to details. Ryan said she wants employers to know that if a woman

graduated from their program, she is a great employee. “I think the best testimony is when somebody comes back and says, ‘Hey, she is so awesome, I want to hire another graduate,’” Ryan said. “Serve more women better” The new facility is set to open by mid-June. The organization’s production area alone is increasing to 9,000 square feet from just 2,500 currently. The number of production lines will go to six from two. The program will grow slowly in the new building, adding 15 more women to its ranks in the first year. Ryan anticipates 40 more hires within three years, increasing the size of the program to 100 women. But adding more jobs isn’t the only benefit of the new space. The current facility lacks private meeting spaces, so a woman and her participant advocate might have to sit in the corner where others could overhear them. The new building offers small and large meeting rooms, as well as phone booth-style rooms for private work and conversations. Ryan said the new facility was designed with safety and privacy in mind. “Maybe she needs to call a shelter to see if there’s a bed that night,” Ryan said. “She doesn’t have to do that out in the open.” This story is from The Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned news outlet based in Denver and covering the state.

Westminster has new football coach BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

CJ Hanna wants to make Westminster High School the thing to do on Friday nights in the fall. That was just part of a video message he made on the school district’s website last week. Hanna replaces Dayne Allbrandt. Hanna comes to the Wolves by way of Denver North High School, where he was dean of culture at the school’s north engagement center. “I played football. I played basketball in high school. My dad was a

coach. He coached me growing up,” Hannah said in the video. “As I got to the point of my career where I thought it might be over, coaching was going to be the next natural fit for me.” While he was a college student, Hanna coached with his dad. Hanna went to college with the aspirations of becoming a teacher. “My dad had super-high expectations of me being a teacher and a coach,” Hanna said. “There was no messing around in that area.” One area of focus for Hanna is the focus on the meaning of student-

athlete. “You’re a student first before you’re an athlete,” he said in the video. “You can’t do what you do on the football field if you don’t take care of your business in the classroom. That’s always been my focus. This isn’t my second career. It’s my first.” WHS was 5-4 last season. Quarterback Anthony Rodriguez threw for 637 yards and eight touchdowns. “Football taught me so many things,” Hanna said in the video clip. “I don’t think I’d be here if it wasn’t for football. I’m a big believer in the family, the family

atmosphere. I love that Westminster has theses facilities that are beautiful. The stadium is right across the parking lot. We have our own practice field. Those are things that, a lot of places in Colorado, you don’t see. “I want to make sure we create this ‘Friday Night Lights’ atmosphere. Every time we’re playing here, it’s an event,” he continued. “It’s something you want to do. You want to shut down the city of Westminster and make it about highschool football on a Friday night. That’s what I get excited about.”

CHSAA approves new basketball classification BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There will be a new classification for high-school basketball starting next season. The Colorado High School Activities Association’s legislative council passed a committee report on April 21 that includes the new classification and a new way for class 2A schools to seed their district tournaments. CHSAA places teams in classifications based on enrollment. CHSAA

does a separate enrollment count for the schools that play football and uses smaller enrollment ranges because so many schools play football The Jefferson County leagues offered an amendment to do away with the new basketball classification. But they also wanted the council to turn it down to offer more time to do more long-range planning. The leagues got their wish. “Most of the council voted against this last year,” said Mike Hughes, the athletic director at

Lakewood High School. “The intent of our amendment is not to do harm to the 6A proposal. The league is planning to bring this back up next year.” The committee’s report also continued district playoffs for smaller schools, such as Fort Lupton, Eagle Ridge and Stargate School. Class 2A schools will be able to seed their own district tournaments and steer clear of CHSAA’s seeding guidelines, which include computer rankings and a coaches poll. However, a second request to

reseed the field after the district round and before the regional round failed. Proponents wanted to account for teams that performed well in the regular season but didn’t so well in district play. “We want to reseed to avoid some funky first-round matchups,” said High Plains League representative Mike Miller. “We want to have the best teams playing in the semifinals and finals.” The council also approved an increase in basketball roster sizes from 12 to 14, effective next season.

Outgoing CHSAA commissioner bids farewell BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

AURORA – Rhonda Blanford Green took in her last Colorado High School Activities Association Legislative Council meeting on April 21. She discussed the association’s budget, and she thanked the council for the privilege of serving as CHSAA’s commissioner. “We’ve been through a lot together the past 14 months,” she said. Her husband passed away, as did former associate commissioner Tom Robinson. “There were a lot of times when I had to be Rhonda and be the commissioner. I had to have a safe place to be Rhonda. “I told Tom this, and he said, ‘Being underestimated is a gift,’” Green continued. “It was tough putting one foot in front of the other with all the

racial and misogynistic comments about the purpose of high-school sports. We persevered through that.” CHSAA Board President Luke DeWolfe said the association was in jeopardy when Green took over in 2017. “Through your fierce dedication, you saw us through some challenging times,” DeWolfe said. “I was humbled at the summer National Federation of High Schools conference last summer to watch Rhonda speak and to speak with the second and third African-American commissioners. They both acknowledged that without her, they would not have had the opportunity they had.” Green singled out former assistant commissioner Ernie Derrera, the newly named wrestling coach at Holy Family High School and former athletic director at Frederick

High School, for “never being afraid to say what the members need and questioning decisions in a way that was respectful.” She also talked about the support of Paul Cain, the district athletic director for Grand Junction schools. “After my husband died, I took a flight and realized that no one cared if I landed,” she said. “I had to have a Rhonda moment where I could cry. Paul Cain called and asked if I was OK. I told him I wasn’t. He said, ‘From here on out, you text me and say, ‘Honey, I’m here.” Green announced her retirement late last year. She is the new president of USA Cheer board of directors. “It’s been my honor to serve you,” Green told the council. “We haven’t always been on the same page. But we’ve always had the same message.”

SPORTS BRIEFS Girls basketball Skyview’s Marina Boltz made a verbal commitment to play basketball and study at York College in York, Nebraska. The announcement was shared on Facebook. Wrestling Holy Family’s next wrestling coach is Ernie Derrera. He comes to the Tigers by way of Severance High School, where he’s been the school’s athletic director. Derrera takes over for Jason Pedigo, who had been the Tigers’ coach the past four years.

CHSAA tweaks part of its transfer rule BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

AURORA – Students who want to transfer between schools can do so as long as it’s not based on athletics or varsity-level playing time. The legislative council of the Colorado High School Activities Association agreed to that change during its April 21 meeting. Twothirds of the council voted in favor. In a second transfer-related vote, the council turned down a motion to prevent students from missing 50

percent of their sports season following a transfer. The present transfer rules sideline transferred students for a calendar year from the date of transfer. League organizing The biennial practice of organizing the state’s athletic conferences is done. The council approved CHSAA’s Classification and League Organizing Committee report. It moved Westminster High School into the Denver Prep League. The Wolves had to find a new confer-

ence after the Eastern Metro Athletic Conference voted to disband. CLOC also approved an appeal from Stargate School in Thornton to stay in class 3A for its basketball teams for the next two years. “There is no element that outweighs other factors when it comes to appeals,” said CLOC Chairman Clay Alba, the athletic director of the Littleton School District. “We took the list as a body of evidence, and we tried to make the best decision based on the school and the context of the sport.”

In other business The legislative council also voted to return to two meetings per school year and turned down a request to let coaches have Sunday contact with their athletes who have used up their eligibility. Tennis players can play a combination of matches and tournaments not to exceed 12, according to a council vote. And in baseball, the legislative council sided with the CHSAA baseball committee’s recommendation that new innings cannot start after two hours of play for sub-varsity level teams.

ABOUT LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Colorado Community Media welcomes letters to the editor. Please note the following rules: • Email your letter to kfiore@coloradocommunitymedia.com. Do not send via postal mail. Put the words “letter to the editor” in the email subject line. • Submit your letter by 5 p.m. on Wednesday in order to have it considered for publication in the following week’s newspaper. • Letters must be no longer than 250 words. • Letters should be exclusively submitted to Colorado Community Media and should not submitted to other outlets or previously posted on websites or social media. Submitted letters become the property of CCM and should not be republished elsewhere. • Letters advocating for a political candidate should focus on that candidate’s qualifications for office. We cannot publish letters that contain unverified negative information about a candidate’s opponent. Letters advocating for or against a political candidate or ballot issue will not be published within 30 days of an election. • Publication of any given letter is at our discretion. Letters are published as space is available. • We will edit letters for clarity, grammar, punctuation and length and write headlines (titles) for letters at our discretion. • Please don’t send us more than one letter per month. First priority for publication will be given to writers who have not

submitted letters to us recently. • Submit your letter in a Word document or in the body of an email. No PDFs or Google Docs, please. • Include your full name, address and phone number. We will publish only your name and city or town of residence, but all of the information requested is needed for us to verify you are who you say you are. • Letters will be considered only from people living in Colorado Community Media’s circulation area in Adams, Arapahoe, Clear Creek, Denver, Douglas, Elbert, Jefferson and Weld counties. • Do not use all caps, italics or bold text. • Keep it polite: No name calling or “mudslinging.” • Include a source — and a link to that source — for any information that is not common knowledge. We will not publish information, including quotes, that cannot easily be verified. • We do not publish speculation about other people’s motives or thoughts. Please keep your comments to a person’s actions or statements. • Generally we will not publish multiple letters that make the same point in a given week. Only submit ideas and opinions that are your own — and in your own words. We will not publish any letter that appears to be part of a letter-writing campaign or that copies text from an outside source, such as a website. • We do not publish letters promoting a business, product or commercial service.

LETTERS FROM PAGE 11

to communicate with only certain candidates? Folks, after representing you for over 18-1/2 years at Hyland Hills, these relationships with multiple government agencies including WPS are vital to providing our community with the best possible services. During the pandemic, when Waterworld was closed, we opened Splashland free of charge to the community. We reached out to WPS to help us get the word out to the community. After successfully serving hundreds of our community we received follow-up grant money from the Adams County Foundation to help with expenses. Wow, government agencies actually working together for the best interests of the community! With that sale of Perl Mack (a 4-1 vote) came a 50-year water agreement from WPS to support your parks and help finance our newest community center in Carroll Butts Park. “Our” customers are WPS’ customers and by having a great relationship with them only helps all of us serve your needs. Issues and Divisions? They weren’t conflicts when Mr. Ranum spawned a new Park & Recreation District nearly 70 years ago and they are not conflicts now. Robert J. Landgraf Jr., Westminster

Your Local News Source

Not a word about climate change Your April 14 above-the-fold front-page article appears to be Westminster City Council’s attempt to respond to my criticism, during the March 31 Town Hall, of their dismissive position on climate change mitigation measures. We read in this article of the city’s commitment to electrifying its fleet vehicles and adding solar power to city facilities, as well as water conservation, renewable energy, discounted solar power and resilience improvements. I am very familiar with the city’s efforts in these directions, mostly because these are praiseworthy programs that staff have diligently worked on in response to the initiatives of previous city councils. But today’s council is the one that specifically dropped climate change actions from its strategic plan priority list two months ago. And as ex-EPA professional Carol Campbell noted in the article with reference to council’s lowering of residential water rates, there is no connection in their minds between water usage and climate preparedness. To council I say, you can’t have it both ways. You can’t profess to take climate change seriously while dismissing it from your table of priorities. Perhaps the title of the abovementioned article is appropriately apposite: `Saving money, being economical in Westminster’. Not a word about climate change. Chris Stimpson, Westminster

The water’s fine for canoeing in Colorado

ith water sport vehicles growing in various forms and popularity today, we sometimes look past the long-term sport of canoeing. The OUTDOOR partnership of man LIVING and canoe emerged in the west to help settlers explore challenging remote back country in the early years. The canoe provided John Wesley Powell’s team an efficient transportaRon Hellbusch tion mode into the Western region’s waterways. The same light weight portable float vehicle allowed Lewis and Clark to carry cargo and transverse small power streams, remote marshlands as well as slow flowing wide river basins. Where and how a canoe can accomplish similar feats for man and cargo today is still very adaptable. And its 21st century versatility has only magnified its popularity. There are personal choices when searching for canoes and canoe travel. Most sporting goods outlets near vacation destination cities or river systems sell and/or rent canoes. Other communities provide guided outfitter services and equipment on specific river basins. For the canoe novice, individual or group; a good initial step is to contact an outfitter and plan the experience together. That proved a wise plan for my daughter, grand-

daughter, and myself when we enjoyed four-day canoe floats and campouts on the Gunnison River near Grand Junction. Among Colorado’s many canoe outfitters, Centennial Canoe Outfitters (CCO) based in Grand Junction with satellite facilities near Palisade offers a typical full range of river canoe trips. For those who like to plan outdoors adventures well in advance and may not have enjoyed previous canoe time consider these guided float dates as one of your options this summer. CCO is featuring five special 2022 floats starting with the “Spring on

the Green” River, Utah 6-day, seven mile run May 17-22; the “Memorial Weekend” May 27-29 on the Gunnison River near Grand Junction; “White River Adventure” near Glenwood Springs June 3-5; “Green River Labyrinth Canyon” float 6 days June 8-12 and the “Yampa River Kickoff” June 10-12 near Steamboat Springs. Families and individuals of all ages looking for a new outdoors experience will find it canoeing Colorado rivers. Most canoe outfitters offer a variety of personal interest experiences from fly fishing, canyon hiking, bald eagle nest observation, beauti-

ful landscape photography, geology, wildlife and bird watching and sightings. Outfitters encourage individual, small group, family or organizational team canoe floats and campouts. Outfitters are licensed on most state rivers and capable of arranging canoe adventures outside Colorado. Explore Colorado’s canoe opportunities. The Mile High State represents seven major river basins, most offer challenging waters and exciting levels of canoeing.
