Mending Minds 5K and 1 Mile
The Mending Minds 5K and 1 Mile takes place on October 3, 2026 at Smith Park, 4000 Greenbriar, University Park, Texas. The event offers the following distances:
- 5K
- 1 Mile
The event raises funds to further the mission of the Parenting for the Present Foundation. The foundation was formed in 2020 to provide high-quality mental health and educational services to underserved areas in North Texas.
Over the past year the foundation's crisis team responded to deadly floods in Central Texas, providing more than 150 hours of direct and indirect clinical support to children, parents, and the broader community.
Clinicians continue work with The King’s Academy and St. Philip’s School and Community Center in South Dallas through psychoeducational evaluations, therapeutic services, and teacher training. These evaluations have led to targeted interventions that affect students in the classroom and at home, including cases involving learning challenges, trauma, and difficult living conditions.
Proceeds also help sustain the Parenting for the Present Podcast, which provides free parenting and mental health guidance. The listed registration fee for the events is $40. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
