Business Cares: April 2024

In Colorado, 1 in 3 women, 1 in 3 men and 1 in 2 transgender individuals will experience an attempted or completed sexual assault in their lifetime. During April, we recognize Sexual Assault Awareness Month with the hopes of increasing conversations about this very important issue.

“From the day I was hired, my passion and gratitude for doing this work never diminished,” Brian Coppom said in a prepared statement. “It was inspiring to learn the role local agriculture plays in our lives, and how direct access to local growers is critical to the success of the markets — as well as the emotional and physical health of our communities.”
