We are proud to announce the official Florida launch of The Confess Project of America’s Mental Health Advocacy Training, a Harvard-reviewed initiative that empowers barbers to serve as frontline mental health advocates within their communities. This nationally recognized program transforms barbershops into trusted spaces for open dialogue, healing, and access to critical mental health resources.
When men are well—mentally and physically—families thrive. Their wellness has a ripple effect: mothers experience more support, children grow up with greater stability, and communities become stronger. That’s why programs like this are so vital.
This groundbreaking event is made possible through the support of The Children’s Board of Hillsborough County, EnVision Resolution Foundation, and Tampa General Hospital.
