Municipal Election Candidates Respond to CHUN Questionnaire

In February, CHUN reached out to all the candidates in the Mayoral, At-Large, and Districts 10,9,7,5 electoral races and asked them to respond to questions regarding key issues facing Denver. These issues included housing, homelessness, historic preservation, transportation, public safety, economic development, and climate. We thank all candidates for their participation and for their contributions to Denver’s democratic process. Candidate responses are provided in this document. They are organized by question, electoral race, and then in the order in which they were received. 

March 15: History Matters Webinar: ​Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 30 Years Later with Rowena Alegria

​Capitol Hill United Neighborhoods (CHUN) History Matters is partnering with the City of Denver Office of Storytelling to host a Zoom event designed to share the Emmy nominated "30 Years Later: How the ADA enabled Denver's Disability Community to 'Boldly Go Where Everyone Else Has Gone Before'".

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or ADA, is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on disability.

We will show the short film and hold a discussion with Rowena Alegria and others with expertise and experience in the struggle for disability rights in Capitol Hill and beyond.

Learn about the role Denver activists played in fighting for the civil rights of people living with disabilities.
