Imagine… Please imagine if you can … the unimaginable disaster in Colorado. Yet some of
us in Boulder and along the Colorado Front Range found ourselves without the most basic
necessities that we take for granted every day; things as basic as brushing our teeth, drinking
clean water, driving our cars, feeling secure with safe roads and bridges, having a warm and
comfortable home and shelter - all gone in a few days. An entire mobile home park is
destroyed with a population of hard working folks who have little means for alternative
housing, no insurance, or ability to go to work. Several lost their lives and many lost the
security of home, perhaps forever. The suffering and hardship that follows displaced
communities and disrupted support systems are harsh on all, especially our children.
