About this Event
🌿EVENT DESCRIPTION

Sanando Nuestra Mente is a free, bilingual mental health and wellness conference created to support healing, connection, and access to resources for our community.

📍 Location: El Buen Samaritano
7000 Woodhue Dr, Austin, TX 78745

Across Central Texas, many Hispanic/Latino and Spanish-speaking families face significant barriers to accessing mental health support—often due to cost, language, stigma, and lack of culturally responsive services.

In fact:

  • Hispanic/Latino adults are 50% less likely to receive mental health treatment compared to non-Hispanic White adults
  • Nearly 1 in 5 adults in Texas experiences a mental health condition each year, yet many do not receive care
  • Language and cultural barriers remain one of the top reasons families do not seek support

Sanando Nuestra Mente was created to help close this gap.

What to expect:

  • Mental health education and community speakers
  • Yoga, mindfulness, and healing practices
  • Cultural performances
  • Access to community organizations and resources
  • Family-friendly activities

This event is designed to be safe, welcoming, and culturally connected, especially for Hispanic/Latino and bilingual families.

💛 Free and open to the community

🌿 DESCRIPCIÓN

Sanando Nuestra Mente es una conferencia gratuita y bilingüe de salud mental y bienestar creada para apoyar la sanación, la conexión y el acceso a recursos para nuestra comunidad.

📅 Fecha: 16 de mayo de 2026
Hora: 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 Ubicación: El Buen Samaritano
7000 Woodhue Dr, Austin, TX 78745

En el centro de Texas, muchas familias hispanas/latinas y de habla hispana enfrentan grandes barreras para acceder a servicios de salud mental—incluyendo el costo, el idioma, el estigma y la falta de servicios culturalmente adecuados.

Por ejemplo:

  • Las personas hispanas/latinas tienen 50% menos probabilidad de recibir tratamiento de salud mental en comparación con personas no hispanas
  • Casi 1 de cada 5 adultos en Texas experimenta una condición de salud mental cada año, pero muchos no reciben atención
  • Las barreras del idioma y la cultura son una de las principales razones por las que las familias no buscan ayuda

Sanando Nuestra Mente fue creado para cerrar esta brecha.

Qué puedes esperar:

  • Charlas educativas sobre salud mental
  • Yoga, mindfulness y prácticas de sanación
  • Presentaciones culturales
  • Acceso a organizaciones y recursos comunitarios
  • Actividades para toda la familia

Este evento está diseñado para ser un espacio seguro, accesible y culturalmente conectado, especialmente para familias hispanas/latinas y bilingües.

💛 Evento gratuito y abierto a la comunidad
