#41: Reaching Men Considering Suicide

It’s Movember, and we are once again supporting the campaign to bring awareness and funding to men’s health related research and treatment along with our friends at The National At-Home Dad Network, Life of Dad, and Dad 2.0 Summit. In this episode, we focus on men’s mental health, and more specifically, suicide prevention. Dr. Sally Spencer-Thomas joins us to talk about the Carson J. Spencer Foundation, on organization she co-founded after her brother’s suicide in 2004. Sally talks about the programs they run to reach men in most need of support and least likely to seek it. She also talks about how dad communities like ours can be part of the solution.
