When Kathryn Severns Avery’s husband, Chris, was killed in a car accident by a group of suspects fleeing a robbery on December 4, 2020, she didn’t know what had happened until officers arrived at her house that evening.Chris, who had been on his way to get groceries, was pronounced dead at the scene; Lakewood Police, bystanders and other first responders were the only ones around him when he died.Avery says the gratitude she felt for those first responders sparked her relationship with what she calls the “traumatic event life cycle” – encompassing every person, from 911 dispatchers to medical personnel to police officers, who are responsible for responding to traumatic events.“After Chris was killed, I made a conscious choice,” Avery said. “I can’t tackle the judicial system, that will only make me old and bitter. But what can I do?”For her, the answer was getting to know the people who were with Chris that day, and as she learned more about first responders and the grim reali...

For the first time since 2003 when then-Mayor John Hickenlooper was inaugurated, Denver has a fresh set of eyes looking at the Mile High City.Fresh, in the sense that Mayor Mike Johnston and Hickenlooper were both outsiders, not part of city government when they were sworn in as Denver mayor, arguably the most powerful political job in Colorado.Johnston delivered an inspirational inaugural speech about creating a new dream for Denver’s future with a call for each of us to also take an oath “to dream, to serve, and to deliver”. As he aptly noted, “Today, we dedicate ourselves to two essential American ideas: That every problem we face is solvable and we are the ones to solve them.”Fresh eyes can introduce powerful ideas. We have all experienced the opportunity that comes with bringing a unique perspective to a new job or responsibility.
