Set the Captives Free! “The Spirit of the Lord ... has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners ... to set the oppressed free." Luke 4:18
The Luke 4:18 Bail Fund, overseen and managed by Faith in Texas, aims to draw attention to the inequities within the money bail system and engage community members – especially those directly impacted – in the processes to address those injustices. All people have inherent worth and deserve to be treated with dignity, care, and respect. Ultimately, the goal of the fund is to set Dallas County captives free so they may return to their families, jobs, and community. The Luke 4:18 Bail Fund is partnering with faith communities, currently and formerly incarcerated people, families impacted by the legal justice system, and funders to drastically reduce the jail population in Dallas County. This vital work can not be done without the generous contributions of our supporters.
