Dudes and Tacos

Dudes & T.A.C.O.S. (Trailblazing Adventures of Connection, Outreach, and Support), is a free monthly men’s mental health gathering designed to create a place where men can connect, have meaningful conversations, and support one another.

Men often face stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, work and family pressures, grief, and other struggles without having many opportunities to talk about them. Dudes & T.A.C.O.S. provides a relaxed, judgment-free environment where guys can have honest conversations about real life, learn practical strategies for improving mental well-being, and build connections with other men who “get it.”

Each gathering includes food, conversation, and a discussion centered around topics that affect men’s mental health and everyday life. This isn’t group therapy, and you don’t have to share anything you’re not comfortable sharing. The goal is simply to bring guys together, to reduce isolation, encourage healthy conversations about life, mental health, and to remind men that asking for support is a strength.

Whether you come for the conversation, the connection, or just the tacos, there’s a place for you at the table.

Dudes & T.A.C.O.S. is an initiative of Samaritan Counseling & Growth Center and is free to attend.
