Tampa Bay Thrives, Inc.

Tampa Bay Thrives is a unique coalition founded in 2019 by leaders who sought an innovative approach to improving mental health for the Tampa Bay community. Our mission is to mobilize the community to strengthen behavioral health outcomes for depression, anxiety, and substance use disorder, with a focus on improving early intervention, access, and awareness.

Tampa Bay Thrives has three priority focus areas to support its mission:

1. Navigation - Enabling individuals seeking help to connect to resources to support them
2. Access - Expanding treatment options for individuals in need of care
3. Stigma - Decreasing the stigma of caring for your mental health

Underpinning these focus areas are activities that provide visibility into, and critical mass around solving for, the core mental health challenges facing the Tampa Bay area. These additional activities include: convening around urgent and emergent issues, research, education, data collection, evaluation, and policy. Tampa Bay Thrives envisions an emotionally healthy community where mental health is a priority and all thrive together.
