Where We Serve

As we feel called to serve the whole City of Dallas, our Team recognizes that the firepower behind community transformation lies within the aspirations and convictions of its leaders.  It is this firepower that Dallas Leadership Foundation works to fuel, ignite, and spread by identifying, cultivating and supporting local leaders that create flourishing in three areas: Neighborhoods, Prisons and Schools.

Neighborhoods

The aim of our Neighborhoods department is to equip local leaders in their efforts to reduce crime, increase community engagement, promote safety, and improve housing. Discover how we rally neighborhood leaders for city-wide impact.

Prisons

Through DLF Reentry we mentor incarcerated men and women working in partnership with local churches and organizations that serve the prison population.  Operating a pre- and post-entry program through designated dorms in Hutchins State Jail, DLF supports individuals seeking a fresh start by walking side-by-side with them to develop individual service plans designed to help them successfully return to society.

Schools

Our youth department coaches and mentors at-risk students in their schools, at their lunches, and throughout the summer to become tomorrow's leaders. Find out how we equip under-served students to thrive.
