In a powerful show of support for community development, Dak Prescott and his fiancée, Sarah Jane Ramos, recently made a heartwarming appearance at a special graduation ceremony for inmates at the Dallas County prison.

The couple, well-known for their commitment to giving back, attended as guests of Damon West, the global speaker and founder of the Change Agent Prison Curriculum.

Ramos, who is pregnant, delivered an emotional speech that resonated deeply with the graduates of the program. She shared an empowering message about the importance of believing in oneself and taking action toward future goals.

“If you believe you’re going to be a successful person in society one day, start acting like you already are,” she told the inmates. Her words were met with a standing ovation as she encouraged the graduates to stay committed to their dreams.

This graduation ceremony marked Ramos‘ first appearance at the event, but Prescott has been a regular participant for the past three years. The Change Agent Prison Curriculum, which is based on Damon West’s book The Coffee Bean, aims to help inmates cultivate positive habits and turn their lives around. West, who was once an inmate himself, created the program to offer prisoners hope and the tools for reintegration into society.

In addition to the inspiring speeches, the ceremony mirrored a traditional graduation with caps, gowns, and heartfelt recognition for the graduates’ hard work. Prescott shared his admiration for his fiancée’s impactful speech through a post on Instagram, where he wrote, “Believe and act like it @sarahjane.”

The ceremony also marked a significant moment in Dak Prescott’s relationship with Damon West, a former inmate who turned his life around with the help of Prescott. West, now a close confidant of the Cowboys star, had once served time for burglary.

After his release, he connected with Prescott, and the two have worked together to bring West’s inspiring story to the screen. Prescott’s involvement in West’s journey has helped create a modern-day Shawshank Redemption narrative, with the ultimate goal of offering hope to others who find themselves incarcerated.

Through his continuous dedication to community outreach, Dak Prescott remains an influential figure both on and off the field, and with Sarah Jane Ramos by his side, their impact continues to grow.
