Dallas Clark
Dallas Clark is the Founder and Director of the program Cultivating Better Minds. He was born and raised in Springfield, MA. He is a Man of God and attends Restoration City Church. He comes with lived experience of the lifestyle of the streets. Dallas's transformation started once he gave his life to God.

In 2023, he decided to start the Cultivating Better Minds Inc. program, where he continues serving others in the Community.
