“Believe it or not, we read what we print,” says Kim Thorne, COO of Cottrell Printing about how their staff has learned about suicide prevention from printing material for the Carson J Spencer Foundation. “When you read it, you talk about it. Mental health has become more of an open subject.”

“What I like most is Man Therapy,” mentions Thorne about an innovative men’s mental health program of the Carson J Spencer Foundation’s in partnership with Cactus and Colorado’s Office of Suicide Prevention. “It’s a valuable tool to get emotional support for men like me.”
