Today on Colorado Edition: Because of the pandemic, an annual survey of people experiencing homelessness has been called off. We get a closer look at what that means for advocates who rely on the data. We’ll also hear from former members of law enforcement about how they are approaching the issue of police violence. We dig into the recent trade of Rockies star player Nolan Arenado, and what it means for fans of the team. And we get a glimpse into life in the Yampa Valley from our My Colorado essay collection.
Our guests today include: Mark Kiszla, sports columnist for the Denver Post; and essayist and freelance writer Jennie Lay. This episode features reporting from KUNC’s Rae Solomon, and Madelyn Beck with the Mountain West News Bureau.
