Prop 134 would require all 179 Colorado school districts to adopt policies determining students’ biological s*x for sports eligibility—starting in kindergarten.

What it doesn’t do is answer the most basic questions about how that would actually work. Who performs the checks. What they involve. Whether parents can opt out. Who pays for it.

Whatever you think about the issue this measure claims to address, it will affect every student who plays school sports in Colorado.

Your voice matters. Ballots are arriving now. Register to vote or check your registration at GoVoteColorado.gov.

A torn-paper hand illustration points inward from the upper right corner of each slide.

Today, we celebrate the people who first called this land home.

We remember the struggles and tragedies they endured.

And we honor their place in and contributions to the shared story of America.

If you could see ANY artist or band in concert, who would it be?

We recently asked our ChangeLine staff to share their dream concert, and the answers did not disappoint! From Tracy Chapman and Van Morrison to the Grateful Dead (but with Jerry, of course!), our team has quite the range in musical taste.

And we have to give a special shoutout to the Brigitte Benson Band on the board! Brigitte is the talented daughter of our very own Chief Strategy Officer, Mary Ellen.

Now we want to hear from you: If you could see any artist or band - past or present - who would be your dream concert?

Image description: A colorful staff board at ChangeLine asks, “Dream Concert… Who are you seeing?” Staff responses include artists and bands such as Prince, Tracy Chapman, Dire Straits, Grateful Dead with Jerry Garcia, Van Morrison, Goose, Rage Against the Machine, Led Zeppelin, Wu-Tang Clan, Olivia Newton-John, Nirvana, and the Brigitte Benson Band.

🚨 Our team is still growing!

We’re looking for an onsite Program and Administrative Coordinator in Colorado Springs and Teller County who likes making things happen behind the scenes, keeping people organized, and bringing calm to the chaos of a million moving parts. You’ll support multiple leaders and work across programs, projects, events, communications, grants, and community engagement. You’ll help turn ideas into action, keep details moving, and make it easier for leaders and teams to focus on the work that matters most.

This role is for someone who has an eye for and remembers the things others are too busy to think about. Some days you’ll be coordinating a meeting or an event. Other days you might be updating a website, helping pull together a grant report, tracking expenses, or making sure a deadline doesn’t quietly sneak past everyone. There’s rarely a boring day, and rarely just one thing happening at a time.

The coordination, communication, organization, and follow-through you provide help amplify the impact our program leaders are making and support the systems change work we’re leading.

👋 Meet Ashlee! Ashlee is our leading teammember for su***de prevention in Teller County. As Transformation Manager, she works passionately with the Teller County Mental Health Alliance to prevent su***de through community support, awareness, and stigma reduction. As a Colorado native, Ashlee has been a fierce advocate for marginalized communities at the system-, organizational-, and client-level for over 13 years. When she isn't working, she's hanging out with animals, eating tasty food, or backpacking through the great outdoors.

💬 "I was drawn to this work by a belief that people already hold much of the wisdom needed to create change. They just need spaces to connect, be heard, and act together. I really appreciate that ChangeLine prioritizes listening and learning."

On the first image, text reads: "Meet Ashlee! Transformation Manager. Su***de Prevention, Teller County." It also includes the quote listed above.

At ChangeLine, we believe the biggest challenges facing communities won’t be solved by one person or one organization alone. They are solved when people come together to rethink and rebuild what’s possible.

ChangeLine is a nonprofit civic hub in the Pikes Peak region that connects people, unlocks ideas, and turns collective power into action.

We're looking for a Su***de Prevention Transformation Manager to join our team onsite in Colorado Springs. This role is for someone who enjoys asking better questions, exploring new possibilities, and helping communities tackle complex challenges in ways that create lasting change.
