'This is the only purpose I have.' 

Dawn Jackson is a justice-impacted advocate, public speaker, and survivor whose life is a testament to resilience and transformation. After serving more than 25 years in prison, she received clemency in 2024 and now uses her voice to uplift survivors of sexual and domestic violence. A wife, mother of 11, and grandmother of 22, Dawn combines lived experience, education, healing, and faith to inspire others to reclaim their power. She is the founder of From Darkness to Dawn, LLC, and the author of the forthcoming memoir Suppressed Secrets. Dawn speaks nationally, reminding audiences that their past chapters do not define their future.
