Gallatin County Mental Health Local Advisory Council Hosting “Salons and Saloons” Outreach Event for Hospitality Workers

The Gallatin Mental Health Local Advisory Council is proud to host the second annual Salons and Saloons, a free community event designed specifically for individuals working in hospitality—servers, bartenders, hairstylists, baristas, estheticians, and more.  

Taking place on Monday, May 19 from 4 to 5:30 p.m. at the Gallatin Labor Temple at 422 E. Mendenhall St. in Bozeman, this event aims to empower frontline workers with tools, knowledge, and connections to support patrons who may be experiencing mental health challenges.  

Attendees will hear from staff with the Gallatin Mobile Crisis Unit Team and The Help Center, as well as connect with representatives from local mental health organizations offering community support.  

Appetizers and beverages will be served.  

Whether you work behind a bar or a salon chair, this event is an opportunity to learn how to respond with confidence and compassion when someone needs help.
