About "Dara Leigh Ministries"

​

Dara Leigh Ministries began from a heart of God-inspired obedience — a decision to show up for the "somebody" who was waiting on her. Dara believes every person is created for a purpose, and for more than 20 years, she's built her work around helping people discover theirs.

Dara spent two decades as an educator and special education advocate before creating the Designed to Win Planner, a practical tool to help students build the executive function skills school doesn't always teach. That work grew into 1:1 coaching for students, parents, and educators — always grounded in faith.

In recent years, that calling has deepened. Through Art Circles, Dara brings creative, faith-infused spaces to youth, young adults, and women — using storytelling, art, and teaching to help people become overcomers, step into their victory, and spark transformation in their own communities.

​

Our Mission: To equip youth and adults to discover their God-given design, walk in victory, and transform their communities through faith, service, creativity, and authentic identity in Christ.

​

Our Vision: A global movement where youth rise up in victory, schools and communities are transformed by love and service, and people experience healing and restoration through God's creation, art, and authentic community.
