A departmental digital program coordinated by the Mayor's Office health and human-services function — the city builds the directory, licensed providers deliver the care.
The problem
Right now, finding a therapist in Tampa means scrolling outdated directories and calling numbers that lead nowhere. When you're struggling, that dead end can feel like the final word — and it shouldn't be.
The plan
A Wellness Portal and interactive Wellness Map show residents exactly where to find mental-health and wellness services near them — with provider verification so listings mean something.
No more guessing which numbers are real, which providers take your insurance, or who's actually accepting new patients.
How you’ll know it’s working
- Wellness Portal and Map launched
- Provider verification standards published
- Residents connected to verified providers
- User feedback on ease of finding care
From the Blueprint
- Resident Portal 'Wellness' tab built mobile-first in plain language; Phase 1 is Months 1-4.
- Private self-check tool (not a diagnosis) plus a 'right now' path: crisis lines, walk-ins, same-day resources.
- Filters for language, cost, age group, and accessibility; quarterly verification purges dead listings.
- Listed partners must show transparent pricing, eligibility rules, working intake, and privacy commitments.
- Wellness Map searchable by walk-in vs. appointment, cost, age group, recovery services, and transit proximity.
