All About Change
Vicki Sokolik refuses to be an Ostrich. Her son brought to her attention the crisis of unhoused youth — youth unhoused, not living with a parent/guardian, and not in foster care — in America, and she has been fighting to support this vulnerable population every since. Most active in Tampa Bay, Florida, Vicki is the founder and CEO of the nonprofit Starting Right, Now, which removes barriers for unaccompanied homeless youth to cultivate long-term well-being and self-sufficiency. She is also the author of the new book, “If You See Them: Young, Unhoused, and Alone in America.” Vicki Sokolik joined host Jay Ruderman to discuss the many ways unhoused youth fall through the cracks in our society, how her organization helps them, and also how to build trust with people who could use your help. Episode Chapters (00:00) Intro (01:10) Vicki’s origin story (02:40) What is “unhoused youth?” (06:40) What should a person do if they worry they see an unhoused youth?

Glenda has had a long career as a clinical psychologist, educator, and writer and has a PhD in psychology from the University of Colorado at Boulder (’84).

For episode forty-six, I spoke with Annamarie Pluhar who runs a nonprofit organization named Sharing Housing. She is the author of a book titled “Sharing Housing: A Guidebook for Finding and Keeping Good Housemates” which extols the virtues of sharing housing and provides practical advice on how to find compatible housemates. Earlier this year I posted a blog article where I estimated that the number of empty bedrooms in Boulder is approximately 30,000 using census data. Recently Boulder city council updated the occupancy restrictions which could potentially make it easier to make better use of those empty bedrooms. I think […]…

Ralph came to my attention at a BVSD board meeting in January where he talked about how enrollment trends, the rising cost of housing, and staff shortages are converging to create difficult challenges for the district. Enrollment is going down, housing costs are going up, and teachers and other staff cannot afford to live here. One bullet item in his presentation that stood out for me included the following: “Re-purposing of [BVSD] properties as affordable housing for BVSD employees, first responders, etc.” Of course, I was eager to hear more about that! Ralph admitted that he was not a housing expert and so he recruited Meghan to join our conversation. This was exciting for me because last year I attended Together Colorado’s series on housing in Boulder County and so I was already familiar with their great work. Ralph and Meghan proved to be great conversation partners as we explored ways that we can make Boulder a more welcoming and inclusive community.…
As the new city council prepares for its annual retreat in January where they will prioritize their agenda for the coming year, David and I want to promote gentle infill in established neighborhoods as a solution that addresses so many of the values that have been identified by the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan. We hope that you will listen, learn, get motivated, and share this with your favorite city council person! David has a long history of heroically planning for and promoting inclusive and affordable housing in his North Boulder neighborhood. But he is swimming against a tide that is the current housing market which incentivizes scraping smaller homes and replacing them with mansions or building luxury condos where affordable housing once stood and city codes that regulate against building the kind of beautiful, compact, inclusive, and affordable housing that he is trying to develop. We talk about a specific housing pilot that he is working on and how his neighborhood and all of Boulder could benefit from this kind of innovative and inclusive housing. We hope you enjoy this conversation about the future of housing in Boulder.…

The Boulder Housing Network is a newsletter, blog, and grassroots political advocacy group that promotes “ethical housing beneath the flatirons”. Their goal is “to get more people involved where and when it matters most: in the early stages of the City’s planning processes.” I subscribe to their newsletter and it is full of useful information. Frequently, articles in the newsletter relate to development projects that are in the planning or approval pipeline here in Boulder along with commentary about the fitness of these projects as they relate to affordability and sustainability along with encouragement on how to get involved in supporting specific projects. There’s a lot of good stuff in these newsletters and I hope you will subscribe today and get involved as you can. The Boulder Housing Network, or BHN is one year old this month. I thought I would help them celebrate by reading the latest edition of the newsletter which came out on Saturday, November 20 th . You can subscribe and read more at boulderhousingnet.wordpress.com.

He articulated that every decision we make as individuals or as a city need to be made in the context of the climate crisis and our urgent need to address this pressing issue.

I give an update on the quilt I’m sewing for a fundraiser and wax philosophical on the importance of diversity in the context of the books I’m reading.
For our eighth episode I sat down with Taylor Jaworski in his office at the University of Colorado where he is a research faculty. Taylor is an economist studies regional economics and is passionate about what makes cities work. Our conversation ranged across topics including what’s so great about cities, why is housing expensive, collective action in the context of incumbents and newcomers, tax policy, whether Boulder residents are uniquely greedy, dynamism, diversity, radical markets, and more. Taylor tends to wave his hands around while speaking in generalities – but when I really pinned him down on what policy changes he would make in Boulder, he singled out exclusionary zoning, occupancy restrictions, and NIMBY attitudes more generally as being important impediments to having the kind of dynamic city he wants to live in. A book that Taylor recommended to me about a year ago quotes the famous economist John Maynard Keynes as saying the following: “The ideas of economists both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.” Taylor is no defunct economist – he is brimming with energy and ideas and is passionate about seeing Boulder become a prosperous and diverse city.

This true-life adventure story takes place on a lovely residential street lined with beautiful single-family homes.

In the first episode I explicitly did not promise that we would never wander from subject to subject and free associate and pontificate about whatever pops into our brilliant minds. In this Sharing Boulder extra I faithfully stand by my word and fulfill this non-promise by letting my mind wander in juxtaposition with video footage of myself engaged in the hyper-focused creative activity of making a quilt.…
For our sixth episode we interviewed Sarah Wiebenson who is a senior project manager with the Community Vitality Department for the city of Boulder. I first met Sarah a couple of years ago through a program called the Boulder County Leadership Fellows which we both completed during the 2019-2020 cohort year. Sarah is a big believer in developing community through walkable neighborhoods that are tightly integrated with local retail and her efforts working for the city reflect those values. The names of many organizations and projects were mentioned in this episode.

32:17Hello Boulder and the wider world. This is the Sharing Boulder podcast. My name is Philip Ogren and for our fifth episode my co-host David Adamson and I interviewed the co-chairs of Bedrooms Are For People; Chelsea Castellano and Eric Budd. Our guests today run Bedrooms Are For People, a grassroots political organization focused on occupancy reform in the city of Boulder. When this interview was recorded on April 17th, Bedrooms Are For People was working at full capacity collecting as many signatures as possible for an online petition to get occupancy reform on the ballot in November. As of the release of this episode they have collected three thousand four hundred signatures which is a few dozen more than the 3,336 required by the city for the petition to be certified. People living in Boulder are going to be hearing a lot more about this important reform in the coming months as voters prepare to decide which way to vote. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Chelsea Castellano and Eric Budd.…

Hello Boulder and the wider world. Welcome to the Sharing Boulder podcast. My name is Philip Ogren and for our fourth episode my co-host David Adamson and I interviewed planning board member Dave Ensign. If you are a developer that wants to build more housing in Boulder of any significant size, then your plans are probably going to be reviewed by the Boulder Planning Board. The Boulder Planning Board is a committee that reviews development projects to make sure that they conform to Boulder’s zoning ordinances and are consistent with various land-use goals. In addition to reviewing projects, the other primary role of the planning board is to help shape land-use policy in the city and county of Boulder. One major focus of effort is to help author the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan which is a document that articulates our collective values around land-use and lays out a detailed outline for how to realize that vision. The current comprehensive plan is 165 pages and covers a wide range of subjects such as housing, open space, the economy, social equity, transportation, energy use, among many others. The plan is full of beautiful photos and detailed maps and is a fantastic resource for appreciating all the work that goes into making our city and county a better place to live for its residents – so you should definitely check it out. All members of the Boulder Planning Board are community volunteers that are appointed by city council. They represent the public and are a voice from the community that helps shape land use decisions in Boulder. Our guest today is the senior member and chair of the Boulder Planning Board, Dave Ensign. We spoke with Dave about what the planning board is and what they do and then had a very interesting conversation about the gap that exists between the vision laid out the comprehensive plan and the reality as we see it on the ground. Our conversation covered a range of subjects including diversity and inclusion, traffic, and the challenge of changing zoning laws. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Dave Ensign.…
Hello Boulder and the wider world. This is the Sharing Boulder podcast. My name is Philip Ogren and for our third episode I interviewed my co-host David Adamson about his efforts to make his neighborhood an inclusive community. David is the founder of the Goose Creek Community Land Trust – a nonprofit organization whose mission is quote: “To ensure our land widely benefits generations of today and tomorrow, we will create, preserve and advocate for housing that is permanently attainable for a diversity of income levels.” David lives on North St. just one block south of North Boulder Park. We started our conversation on the far west end of the street where the construction of a multi-million dollar single family home is currently underway. This episode was filmed on site at three different locations on North Street. We want to encourage our listeners to check out our YouTube video of this episode which has the same audio as the podcast but also includes video footage of the neighborhood.…
Hello Boulder and the wider world. This is the Sharing Boulder podcast. My name is Philip Ogren and for our second episode my co-host David Adamson and I interviewed city councilman Aaron Brockett – a resident of north Boulder’s Holiday co-housing neighborhood. Aaron was on the planning board for five years before being elected to city council in 2015. I first became aware of Aaron’s work on city council when he was endorsed by a grassroots organization called Boulder Progressives in 2019 for being a candidate that quote “understands the connections between housing, transportation, and climate action, and has the will to implement real change in this area.” In an upcoming episode I interviewed David about ideas for adding gentle infill projects to the street he lives on including a pilot project he has been trying to realize for years. But he has had difficulty getting the green light from the city of Boulder. We interviewed Aaron on January 30th, 2021 a day after the city council rejected further consideration of the pilot infill project despite Aaron’s own attempts to breath life into the discussion. Our conversation covered a range of topics including the co-housing project he lives in in North Boulder, the relationship between community and sustainability, affordable housing, 15-minute neighborhoods, car sharing, and much more. This episode refers to a number of people, organizations, projects, and books. Please visit our website at https://sharingboulder.us for show notes and links. We hope you enjoy our discussion with Aaron Brockett.…
