The public needs to get involved in Denver's public-health crisis at the Union Station bus terminal.
Since undergoing a $54 million renovation and grand reopening in 2014,has served as the bustling heart of downtown travel and commerce. Thirty-thousand visitors pass through daily to visit the luxurious Crawford Hotel as well as high-end restaurants and retail shops located beneath the iconic neon-red letters illuminating the station’s ground floor. However, there is another side to Union Station – a literal underbelly – that inspires considerably less awe than the grand structure above.
More law enforcement resources will not solve a public-health problem rooted in homelessness. We need to support efforts to invest in long-term solutions — affordable transitional housing, robust community-based mental health services and equitable educational and career opportunities — so that Union Station, or somewhere else like it, won’t have to be the “last stop” for people who have fallen through every other crack.
What is happening in the lower terminal of Union Station affects us all, because the"public" in public health is made up of individuals like us, and we as individuals are connected through the shared benefits and obligations of society. Public health is not solely the responsibility of health researchers, medical professionals or city officials; it is the responsibility of every person who participates in that shared society.
