M-PACT Chattanooga: Where Men Connect

The best way to fight male loneliness is through community. Let’s get connected.

M-PACT is bringing together Chattanooga’s best groups, clubs, and organizations to help men find real connection and community.

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t have “your people,” this event is for you.

We’re uniting organizations and individuals who recognize the national loneliness epidemic impacting boys and men. Together, we’re sending a powerful message: You don’t have to do life alone. There are real, thriving communities here in Chattanooga that want you involved.

What is M-PACT?

M-PACT is all about Males + Impact. We believe that connection changes lives, and we’re committed to creating spaces where men and boys can find their people, build relationships, and create a lasting impact.

Here’s what it stands for:
🔹 M – Males: Because this movement is built for you.
🔹 PACT – A commitment: To each other, to community, to belonging.
🔹 M-PACT – Impacting the lives of boys and men by breaking isolation and building connection.

We aren’t just hosting an event—we’re building a resource that lasts year-round, helping men find communities they can be part of long after the day is over.

Why It Matters

We’re building on the momentum of last year’s Men’s Mental Health Matters event, where 20+ partners united , 200+ attendees gathered, and we proved that vulnerability is strength.

Men under 30 and over 80 report the highest levels of loneliness, and too many guys are struggling alone. M-PACT is here to change that by making it easier to find your Third Space—the place beyond work and home where you belong.

This isn’t just an event—it’s a chance to take action, meet like-minded people, and plug into a community that lasts long after the day is over.
