We hope you’ll join us on April 16 for our second annual Little Lights—a night that truly makes a difference. Held at FloridaRAMA, St. Pete’s one-of-a-kind immersive art museum, this magical after-hours experience supports vital children and family services.

Thank you, Pinellas Community Foundation, for helping us continue this important work. Check out all the amazing work they do for our community at https://pinellascf.org/

Directions for Living was proud to present on Mental Health Court at Live Tampa Bay's 4th Annual Behavioral Health & Public Safety Summit yesterday - a gathering focused on bridging systems, first responders, courts, and crisis interventions to better serve our community.

DFL's Mental Health Court program connects Pinellas County residents with comprehensive outpatient treatment, aiming to reduce repeated justice-system involvement by diverting individuals with serious mental illness to effective services and helping them maintain stability in the community.

A huge thank you to our incredible presenters, Mara and Joseph, for representing DFL and sharing the impact of this important work.
