City offers help for workers hurt by shutdown

Delberta Clark created a small business to help others thrive

Mortgage assistance available; rent aid may go to some with low incomes

BY KAILYN LAMB KLAMB@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Sitting in her apartment across the street from the Capitol Building, Delberta Clark quietly listens to jazz music and surveys the plants she is growing on shelves. Green vines are growing out of the water-filled jars she hopes to sell as part of her small community project down the block, which she calls the We Got Your Back Team. On Grant Street, Clark has set up a small shop of sorts on a concrete slab inside a gated area that’s about 10 feet wide and 300 feet long. She sells used items like plates and furniture, but also her own handmade walking canes. In warmer weather she can be found sitting in a chair, hoping to sell her wares to raise funds for the homeless in the area. “I’m a community person, I like to get involved and do things,” she said. “A city is so big, you have to have a community and focus on the people that you’re around.” Clark, or Lady Clark as she is known in the neighborhood, started the project with the help of Knights of Columbus, a Catholic-based charitable organization at 1555 Grant St., which the building next to her shop.

The City of Denver is offering financial help to some federal employees and others affected by the longest U.S. government shutdown in history, Mayor Michael Hancock said. His administration is offering up to two months or $5,000 in grants to help homeowners facing hardship pay their mortgages. Hancock said at a press conference that after watching a news report on the partial shutdown last week and realizing it could last indefinitely, he started calling aides to see what could be done to help federal workers in the Denver area. He said by the end of last week details of the temporary mortgage assistance program were in place and $485,000 in funds for the program had been identified. City officials estimate metro Denver is home to about 30,000 federal employees. It was unclear how many were affected by the shutdown. Hancock said some federal workers have savings or other resources, but some are living paycheck-to-paycheck, as his own family did when he was growing up. SEE SHUTDOWN, P4

‘Conversion therapy’ banned in Denver

Governor presents first budget to lawmakers Full-day kindergarten is at top of wish list as Polis takes office BY JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis pitched his plan for state-funded full-day kindergarten to lawmakers, calling it an opportunity to address educational and economic inequities facing young families. Polis asked for $227 million for fullday kindergarten — to start this fall — in a $33.7 billion budget request for the fiscal year that starts July 1. Funds for that and $25 million in implementation costs would come from surplus tax revenue that legislative budget Polis writers have to work with this session. Polis formally presented his first budget Jan. 16 to the powerful bipartisan Joint Budget Committee. “You have a historic opportunity. For decades, legislators have worked to find a way to fund kindergarten in our state,” he said. “It’s a reality that giving kids a strong start is absolutely essential to their success.” Minority Republicans want to use that windfall to pay down a multimillion-dollar state debt to public schools and invest in Colorado’s increasingly congested and aging road network. Republican Rep. Bob Rankin, a budget committee member, welcomed Polis’ emphasis on schools. But he urged caution. “I think a good reason we have excess money is that oil production is up,” Rankin said, alluding to an industry that is bracing for tougher environmental regulations under the Polis administration. “I also am concerned about transportation and how we need to put more money in it.” The Democratic governor, who took

office Jan. 8, is a tech and education entrepreneur who has founded two public charter schools for at-risk youths and launched his political career with a seat on the state education board. Polis insists early childhood education produces higher graduation rates and contributes to a strong economy. He cites the challenge faced by tens of thousands of Colorado families who must decide whether to pay local school districts for kindergarten, which can cost up to $500 a month. Colorado currently pays for half-day kindergarten. Despite a law requiring annual increases in K-12 spending, the state long has underfunded K-12 by hundreds of millions of dollars. Lawmakers have used an end-around, essentially an IOU to schools, in fashioning a budget that by law must be balanced each year. Nearly 50,000 Colorado children attend full-time kindergarten, 19,000 of them free, the state education department says. Polis said his plan would allow 13,000 more children to attend and save districts $100 million for other educational purposes. And he cited enrollment and funding figures for each budget committee member’s district. Republicans, now in the minority in both legislative chambers after the November election, want to dedicate large portions of the new revenue to roads and schools. One GOP proposal would dedicate $340 million in fiscal year 2019-2020 to each. Polis’ budget request keeps tuition flat at Colorado’s state-run universities and colleges next year. It provides seed money for a new health care policy office, efforts to enable private health insurers to limit premium hikes, paid parental leave for state workers and more oil and gas field inspectors. The governor told lawmakers his administration is looking into possibly expediting state unemployment funds for federal workers affected by the U.S. government partial shutdown. The chance of effects on the state budget, he said, will increase if the shutdown persists for weeks or months to come.

Council unanimously prohibits treatment that aims to change sexual orientation in young people BY DAVID SACHS DENVERITE.COM

The Denver City Council on Jan. 7 unanimously approved a ban on “conversion therapy,” or the ill-fated attempt by adults to teach children — through mentally and physically abusive means — that their innate sexuality is a disorder that can be cured. “It’s child abuse at best, torture at worst,” said Mike Taylor, a member of Denver’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Commission, during a city council committee meeting last month. Trying to “train” kids out of inherent parts of their identity is not only futile, it’s harmful, experts say. Being forced to repress your true self can lead to depression, anxiety, drug use, homelessness and suicide, Taylor said. Then there are the physically abusive methods, which can include shocking children or giving them nausea-inducing drugs while showing them same-sex pornography. “If people perceive that some aspect of themselves is wrong or shameful or frowned upon, they’re more likely to repress it,” said Dr. Sarah Bergamy, a developmental psychologist who specializes in sexual and gender identity. “That doesn’t mean it goes away. That means it gets repressed. That’s when we see symptoms of depression and anxiety.” The American Psychiatric Association deemed the practice bunk in 1973. Officials are unaware of any practitioners of the so-called

therapy within city limits, but hope banning the practice encourages people to come forward who might otherwise hold back. The law, sponsored by City Councilwoman Robin Kniech and City Council President Jolon Clark, aligns Denver with 47 cities, 14 states and nine countries. It hits home for Kniech. She came out in her early 20s. “It isn’t easy to be someone different than the world expected you to be — to love or want to be with someone that you were never told about in the fairy tales that were read to you,” Kniech said at last week’s legislative meeting. “Loving someone does not make you sick, physically or mentally … But shame and rejection make people sick — shame and rejection that teach you that if you fail to meet the expectations your religion or your family or your community has, that you are wrong and that you don’t belong.” The Interfaith Alliance of Colorado put its full support behind the law. That’s significant because religious beliefs are sometimes behind the myth of conversion therapy. “As a Christian and a pastor and a mother, I believe that everyone is created in the image of God, loved and beautiful just how they are,” said Rev. Amanda Henderson, executive director of the Interfaith Alliance. “Naming a person’s gender or sex as a sin or a source of brokenness is painful and violent and has life-or-death consequences.” The practice remains legal in Colorado, but not for long, if Arash Jahanian has anything to say about it. The chair of Denver’s LGBTQ Commission hopes the municipal law leads to changes at the Colorado Legislature this year, now that it’s under Democratic control. Republicans have killed bills to ban the practice four years straight.

CLARK

SHUTDOWN

FROM PAGE 1

She first connected with the organization after she spent several years picking up trash in the area. The Knights provided Clark with the space at the beginning of 2017. It has also given her portable tents for shade and an electric outlet so she can play jazz on the radio as she waits outside for customers. In 1955, Clark moved to Colorado from Texas. She had her first son when she was 16, and went on to raise several more children as well as eight grandchildren. But now, she said it’s time to give back to herself. “It’s my turn now to live and do what I want to do,” she said. And what she wants to do, at 86 years old, is help others. Before she moved to Denver, she and her late husband Robert would feed homeless people out of their home in Aurora. With some of the money from her shop, she hopes to buy toiletries and other items for the homeless in the area. “I want to be able to buy what I want to buy and support that way,” she said. “They deserve to have more than just hand-me-downs.” She is hoping to eventually get a business license for her store. She is also hoping she can teach people to make things and sell them. By using found items such as plastic soda bottles, people can make and sell their own planters, Clark said. Clark constantly needs to be doing something. In addition to her plants, she makes canes out of large branches she finds. She

“I certainly understand the … uncertainty they’re facing,” he said. Mile High United Way will use its existing hotline, which people seeking information on a range of aid programs can reach by dialing 211, to take applications for the mortgage assistance. Christine Benero, president and CEO of Mile High United Way, joined Hancock at the news conference and said her organization saw an increase in 211 calls Monday morning. Jan. 11 was the first day since the shutdown began that federal paychecks were due. Eric Hiraga, executive director of Denver’s Office of Economic Development, said Jan. 14 that it’s not just federal employees who have been affected by the shutdown, so it’s not just federal employees who can get assistance. A cafe owner whose business relied on a lunch crowd of government workers or an entrepreneur with a federal contract are also being hit as the shutdown continues. To be eligible for the mortgage assistance, which will not have to be repaid, Denverites will have to show they are

Knights of Columbus gave Clark her own space to operate a community project where she sells used goods. She hopes to use some of the profits to buy toiletries and other necessities for the homeless. KAILYN LAMB peels off the bark and carves shapes out of the branches. Then she sands and stains them. She can make planters out of wood. She also sews. As a child, Clark’s mother taught her many of these skills, as well as how to use them to help others. Clark said her mother taught her “how to give.” The seeds for her plants have become a metaphor for how she views life, Clark said: A small seed can produce a large plant. Her goal is to encourage others and tell them that everyone has a purpose. “I just like people to feel that they are somebody,” she said. “I just want to be a little drop in the bucket of telling people what they can do.”

earning less than 120 percent of the area median income and have been hurt by furlough, temporary layoff or significant reduction in working hours. Among those that have responded in a similar way to the shutdown is the Food Bank of the Rockies, which announced last week it was adding emergency food distribution centers in the Denver area to serve federal workers and others. Food Bank spokeswoman Janie Gianotsos said on Jan. 14 that the response has been significant from people who have been furloughed and who had not turned to the main regional food bank in the past. Denver officials also said on Jan. 14 that low-income renters affected may take advantage of the city’s Temporary Rental and Utility Assistance Program, which began in 2017 as part of efforts to address Denver’s housing crisis. Callers can get information about the rental assistance program by dialing the city’s 311 help line. Hancock, a Democrat, called on national leaders to end the shutdown and then focus on negotiating a compromise on border security. With the shutdown in its fourth week, President Donald Trump is continuing to insist on a U.S.-Mexico border wall that Democrat leaders say would be ineffective and immoral.

An Evening in Oz Gala will help support education, community engagement and scholarships of the Colorado Ballet throughout the year. Michael Korenblat, gala co-chair, academy parent and board member, said in a news release that the organizing parents “are especially excited to be in a position to raise scholarship money for worthy academy students and extraordinary education programs. We are honored to serve in this role to support such worthy causes.” The gala is Feb. 7 at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House at the Denver Performing Arts Complex. The evening begins with a cocktail recep-

tion featuring surprise jewelry boxes donated by John Atencio, a wine pull provided by the Colorado Ballet Auxiliary and a small silent auction. Entertainment will include excerpts from the world premiere tour of “The Wizard of Oz,” a joint production of Colorado Ballet, Kansas City Ballet and Royal Winnipeg Ballet. Created by world-renowned choreographer Septime Webre, whom Colorado Ballet fans remember for his production of “Alice (in wonderland),” this production features a lineup of world-class designers and music by Matthew Pierce. Following the entertainment and auction, a dinner created by Kevin Taylor will be served in the Chambers Grant Salon and the Ellie Loge. After dinner guests may stay for bubbly and dancing on the stage to music provided by DJ Larry. Cocktail attire is recommended. Tables, tickets and more information are available at 303-339-1640 or online at coloradoballet.org/gala.

U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Denver, was named chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee’s Oversight and Investigations panel. The move Jan. 15 move gives the Colorado Democrat considerable sway to influence future policy decisions related to health care and the environment as her party once again takes control of the U.S. House of Representatives. As chair of the panel, DeGette will have direct oversight authority and the power to investigate the actions of several prominent federal agencies that fall under the broader committee’s jurisdiction, including the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Federal Communications Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration and the Department of Energy. “I can think of no other time in our nation’s history that keeping a close watch on these agencies was so impor-

tant,” DeGette said in a news release. “As chair of Energy and Commerce’s oversight and investigation panel, my top priority is to make sure that science and widely accepted scientific facts are once again used as the basis for any and all of the important decisions that these agencies make every day. No longer are we going to allow these agencies to ignore, among other DeGette things, the very real effects of climate change or base their decisions on hyper-partisan rhetoric, instead of well-established scientific facts.” DeGette, Colorado’s most senior member of Congress now in her 12th term, said finding ways to combat climate change and make health care more affordable for all Americans will be two of the panel’s top priorities in the months ahead. The first issue the panel plans to tackle, according to DeGette, is the Trump administration’s policy of separating children from their families at the border. The federal agency charged with caring for any undocumented children taken from their families at the border is HHS, one of the agencies now under DeGette’s purview. DeGette was also named a senior member on the committee’s panel on telecommunications and its subcommittee on the environment and climate change.

Some ‘hidden gem’ resorts

Hit the

without going broke A skier skis through the powder at Loveland Ski Resort.

Knowing how to save money can take some sting out of skiing BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

ail and Beaver Creek resorts recently announced their day passes jumped to $209 per day at the door, a new all-time high, serving as a reminder that a day on the slopes is anything but cheap. Frequent skiers and riders can curb the steep day pass prices by purchasing season-long passes through Epic or Ikon. Those passes provide unlimited access to a number of big resorts, but are only available at the beginning or early in the season. For the casual skier, taking a day trip up to the mountains can get expensive fast. There’s the day pass, with face values of anywhere from $150 to $200, along with rentals, gear, food and transportation. But a day on the slopes doesn’t have to break the bank. For keen ski shoppers, September is the time to buy. It’s typically the point in the year when season passes are at their cheapest and a slew of sales on gear and clothing are underway across the metro area, including Ski Rex at Epic Mountain Gear stores and the Powder Daze Sale in various Christy Sports stores across the Front Range. But there are still ways you can save on skiing, even midway through the season. January is “learn to ski and ride month” at most resorts, and deals can be found for beginning skiers. Finding a lessons package may be the best option for getting the most bang for your buck. Some resorts offer a package of a lift ticket, rentals and gear

and instruction for cheaper than what each would cost separately. Knowing where to go can help you get the most out of your ski day. Brittany Smith, with the Colorado Mountain Club, a nonprofit organization that educates people on outdoor recreation, said pre-planning is the best way to save money. But also finding some less-crowded resorts can end up saving you a lot of money. “Ski resorts almost penalize you for your sponetaity,” Smith said. “They’re making you pay the most if you come last minute, but they give you a break if you pre-plan. Pre-plan at least a week ahead of time, if not more. “Your ski day is about what you make it to be, and I think that’s important.” Here are some tips on ways to save and ski: Passes Chris Linsmayer, public affairs director for Colorado Ski Country USA, a nonprofit trade organization representing 23 ski and snowboard resorts, said the key to saving money for a day of skiing or riding is planning. “The earlier you are purchasing tickets or purchasing rentals or purchasing lodging, the more money you’re going to save,” Linsmayer said. “It’s about knowing what you want to do.” But what about those Friday afternoon impulses to get some powder, or a sudden blizzard that promises a couple inches of the fresh stuff ? Finding day passes under $100 can be tricky, especially is you’re looking at some of the larger juggernaut resorts. Colorado Ski Country USA has a list on its website, ColoradoSki.com, of some of the lesser-known spots in the state that are good for a solid day of skiing — fittingly listed under the tab “Gems.” Liftopia.com is a good source to find discounted tickets for up to 50 percent

off day passes. Local shops like King Soopers, Christy Sports and Colorado Ski and Golf can offer discounts on day passes as well. Gear/renting The best deals on gear can be found late in the summer at various mega sales like Ski-Rex or Powder Daze near the end of summer. Brianna Lee, social media and reputation manager with Christy Sports, recommends finding shops that are willing to sell demo gear at a discount once it’s been lightly used for a couple seasons. In that case, Lee said, you just have to ask around. For infrequent or inexperienced skiers, Linsmayer recommends buying your own boots, which makes it easier to try out different types of skis or boards. When it comes to renting, Lee agrees booking early is the way to go. And where you rent can also make a huge different in your budget. “Even renting at a Christy Sports in Denver versus in the mountains will save a few bucks,” Lee said. “Generally, renting in resort areas — even if it’s not from the resort — will be more expensive.” For kids Encouraging kids to ski is huge for the industry, Lee said, so there are tons of ways to save on kids’ tickets. Christy Sports offers a Kids Bundle of season rentals and a season pass with some resort partners, and kids under 12 get free rentals with a fourday adult ski rental. Several areas offer free skiing for kids as well, when accompanied by an adult pass. Colorado Ski Country offers a Fifth Grade Passport program, which provides three days of skiing at 22 ski areas — 66 days of total skiing or riding — for free. There is also a sixth-

grade program that is $125 for four days of skiing. Both program registration deadlines are the end of January. Transportation Interstate 70 is famous for its mileslong bumper-to-bumper traffic during ski season. Sitting through traffic can be the most dreadful part of a ski day, one that wastes time and money. Smith recommends seeking out mountains off I-70, or ones closer to the Front Range, to avoid this problem. “Finding places that are not on I-70 can be saving in itself,” Smith said. Smith recommended visiting goI70. com for information on traffic and transit options for people who don’t want to drive themselves. SkiCarpool.com is a ride-sharing message board for people looking to save money on the trip up, while making a few friends in the process. SkiCarpool is a nonprofit organization facilitating rides up to the mountains in Colorado.

Oh, maybe brain surgeons do. Right now, right this minute, while I am writing this column, I am, in addition, ordering art supplies from Dick Blick, playing Fetch and Drop with Harry, corresponding with a wealthy Nigerian widow, and trying to solve the Fourier Transform (I’m close).

As a matter of fact, the more we think about it, the more variables we tend to put into the situation and then we add in some “what-ifs.” And all that does is lead us closer to indecision than towards making any decision at all. And when we think about it, not all, but most decisions we do make can be changed if needed and we did happen to make the wrong decision. We just make a

Maybe that’s it. If I drove as much as I once did, I’d be in the loop and I might even be an offender myself. My consternation may be age-related. I know I don’t have forever to live, and I don’t want to spend my remaining time in the hospital. While I may be an exemplar, I am not a slowpoke. I am an assertive driver. It takes one.

Broncos hire 49ers assistant as offensive coordinator BY ARNIE STAPLETON ASSOCIATED PRESS

The task of modernizing Denver’s outdated offense goes to Rich Scangarello, whose stellar work as San Francisco’s quarterbacks coach the last two seasons led to his hiring as the Broncos’ offensive coordinator. “We’re getting an experienced coach who was a trusted and valued assistant with Kyle Shanahan for three seasons,” Broncos head coach Vic Fangio said. “... With his background and knowledge, it’s the perfect time for Rich to be an offensive coordinator in the NFL. I find this opportunity

for Rich very similar to when I first became a defensive coordinator many years ago, and he is ready to take this step in his career.” General Manager John Elway declared recently that the Broncos need to catch up with teams around the NFL who are all-in on the run-pass option and other innovative concepts seeping into the NFL from college football’s heavy reliance on spread offenses. Fangio homed in on Scangarello (scain-guh-REL-oh) after rebuffing Gary Kubiak, the ex-Broncos head coach who wanted to return to running Denver’s offense after spending a year as a senior personnel assistant

for Elway. Kubiak, who stepped down after the 2016 season, citing health concerns, instead joined the Minnesota Vikings’ staff this week. Scangarello, 46, is a 24-year coaching veteran with four years of NFL experience, including three with Shanahan. He was instrumental in the development of four quarterbacks in San Francisco, starting with Brian Hoyer and C.J. Beathard in 2017. He helped Jimmy Garoppolo adjust after a midseason trade from New England that season, and Garoppolo won his first five starts. After injuries to Garoppolo and

Beathard last season, Scangarello helped undrafted free agent Nick Mullens go from third-stringer to starter. In eight games, Mullens averaged 285 yards passing and completed 64 percent of his passes. He led the 49ers to a win over Denver in December. The Broncos have been unstable at quarterback ever since Peyton Manning’s retirement following their Super Bowl win three years ago. Case Keenum has a year left on his two-year, $36 million contract, although Elway recently said he viewed Keenum as a short-term fix as he continues searching for a long-term answer.
