Since 2011, the Fiesta Especial Inclusion 5K & Parade team has worked to ensure that there’s a Fiesta experience that’s inclusive of people with all types of abilities. INCLUSION is involvement and empowerment, where the inherent worth and dignity of all people are recognized. An inclusive community promotes and sustains a sense of belonging; it values and practices respect for the talents, beliefs, backgrounds, and ways of living of its members.

The Fiesta Especial Inclusion 5K is an inclusive, family-friendly event taking place on Saturday, April 2nd,2022. Starting from The City of Windcrest's City Hall and winding through the neighborhoods, this race includes competitive divisions for Runners, Riders, Walkers, and Rollers alike. Spectators are invited to bring a chair or blanket, find a spot along the route and enjoy watching the parade go by... at no cost to the family. Free games and activities are available for parade spectators to enjoy in the parking lot of the Windcrest City Hall and food and beverages will be available for sale.

Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older to volunteer without a supervising adult. Children, 12 and up are welcome to volunteer, but must be accompanied by an adult, 18 years of age or older.

Clarity Child Guidance Center provides mental health support to children and adolescents in crisis. Not every child who enters our care has the chance to plan for their arrival. Many are brought to our hospital amid an emergency and only have the clothes on their back. Additionally, over 60% of the children we serve are at or below the poverty line. Please support our mission by donating new or gently used clothing to our Bridge the Gap closet. Your in-kind donation will directly help a child feel cared for.

Just one meal can change a child's life! Here's an opportunity for you and your group to provide a meal for our kids and get to know them in a safe and therapeutic environment.

Some of the things you can provide...
- Main dish - barbeque, burgers, sandwiches, it's your choice!
- Side dish - we all need veggies, right?
- Dessert - who doesn't like dessert?
- Drinks - water or juice.
- Paper plates, disposable cups and napkins.

Please be aware this opportunity is designed for a group of approximately 5 volunteers. It requires you to prepare, purchase, or solicit a meal for approximately 100 people. The vast majority of which are the children in our care, but it also accounts for our night staff.
