Ridgeland, Miss. (October 29, 2026) – Christina Dent, Founder and Vice President of Mission at End It For Good, is stepping away from her role with the organization after nearly a decade spent helping change how people across the country think about drugs and addiction.

Dent founded End It For Good after her experience as a foster parent challenged her assumptions about addiction. What began as a personal shift grew into a nonprofit inviting people to explore solutions to drugs that prioritize life, preserve families, and promote public safety.

Through speaking, writing, and conversations with people across the political spectrum, Dent encouraged audiences to reconsider society’s response to drugs and addiction and approach the issue with curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to consider new solutions.

“Christina’s impact on changing hearts and minds across the country is immeasurable,” said Bryan Mauk, CEO of End It For Good. “Her willingness to share her own journey and invite people into thoughtful conversations has helped countless people reconsider what they believed about drugs and addiction. We are deeply grateful for the foundation she has built and the lives that will continue to be touched by her work.”

Jon Fults, a member of End It For Good’s board of directors, has been grateful to witness Christina’s impact firsthand. “It’s been amazing to be part of the impact Christina has made over the past nine years, and I wish her all the best in her next season of life,” Fults said.

As she enters this next season, Dent plans to focus more of her time and energy on her family. “Starting End It For Good has been one of the great privileges of my life,” Dent said. “As I enter this next season, I’m still cheering from the sidelines. There’s still so much work to be done so we can help more people have the best opportunity to thrive.”
While Dent’s chapter with the organization has come to a close, the need for thoughtful, compassionate conversations about drugs and addiction remains. End It For Good will continue its work under Mauk’s leadership, building on the foundation Dent helped establish. The organization remains committed to bringing people together across differences, challenging assumptions, and advancing health-centered approaches to drugs and addiction.
