Glen Denehie

Chapter Director

My name is Glen Denehie and I am the Chapter Director for the  North Texas Chapter.

The cornerstones for our North Texas Chapter are : Community, Hope, Healing, Awareness

We believe there is power in these cornerstones and these cornerstones will  provide a safe and solid place for impacted individuals to get help as well as have the opportunity to help others as we take this journey together.

I have been married to my amazing wife,  Beth, for 27 years. We have two teenage sons who make our circus complete.

Though I call Dallas home now, I grew up in South Mississippi and Louisiana. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Louisiana- Lafayette and graduate studies at the University of Dallas.
