Block Builders Introductory Meeting @ Senior Planet
2024-02-20 16:00 - 17:00 | Senior Planet, 7585 E. Academy Boulevard, Denver, CO, 80230, United States
YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE TO MAKING OUR COMMUNITY SAFER AND MORE SECURE
Learn how on Tuesday, Feb. 20 from 4 – 5 p.m. at Senior Planet.

Are you concerned about safety in Lowry?
Would you like to increase the sense of safety and community with your neighbors?
Do you know your neighbor’s name across the street or down the block?
Do you know how to contact them if you want or need to?

In January, Lowry United Neighborhoods (LUN) hosted a meeting on crime and safety for the Lowry Community with Denver Chief of Police, Ron Thomas, and Denver District Attorney, Beth McCann. They discussed activities and programs that can increase safety in our community.
The police are not the only ones that can significantly reduce crime, we all have a role that can contribute to safer and more secure neighborhoods. The key is knowing your neighbors. Neighbors who know neighbors tend to watch out for each other and report if something does not look right. A secondary, but significant, benefit is neighbors who know neighbors make a stronger community by building social interaction and holding neighborhood events.
The program is called Block Builders. Other Denver neighborhood organizations have successfully used Block Builder programs for many years. It involves a volunteer block leader (or co-leaders) maintaining and sharing a private contact list within your neighborhood block or housing complex.
At the January meeting, LUN announced we would facilitate an introductory meeting for neighbors who would like to learn more about Block Builders. This meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 20 from 4:-5:00 p.m.at Senior Planet.
To register for this meeting, complete this form.
Meeting Location – Senior Planet:

March 23-April 20
Steve is grieving the death of his wife. His mother-in-law, Guadalupe, has moved into his guest room while she works to translate the children’s books her deceased daughter has written. Both are overcome with grief but struggle to connect. Differences in language and culture keep them separated until they find common ground watching Mexican telenovelas on the T.V. The play is a deeply moving and very funny celebration of life, new beginnings, and the healing power of telenovelas.
