For many people, prison is a recurring cycle, or worse, the end of the line. Not so for many inmates who find spiritual freedom in faith-based dorms. Dana Clah was one who found such freedom with the help of the Lord, IBLP staff and volunteers, and the materials that helped her understand how to follow Christ and His commands.

Dana was already a believer, but she needed to learn how to let God live His life through her instead of her trying to do so in her own strength. While she was incarcerated, she lived in an IBLP faith-based dorm. Dana shares: “I could hear God speaking to my spirit and renewing my strength. I could let go of guilt and shame of the things I got involved in.”

After graduating from the faith-based program and being released from prison, Dana wanted to give life-changing opportunities to others facing similar situations. She started her own non-profit ministry and began an outreach to inmates at a county jail. Currently, Dana helps approximately forty inmates.
