Dr. Euvonka Farabee
Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Life Strategist, Coach, Internationally best-selling Author and Motivational Speaker, Chaplain Dr. Euvonka Farabee has facilitated and designed numerous training sessions and materials for the benefit of her clients.
Dr. Farabee’s corporate and entrepreneurial career has given her the opportunity to advise many business owners that range from, "C-Suite" level corporate executives to, "Mom & Pop," small business owners in various industries for over 30 years.
After simultaneously developing business and various aspects of ministry over several years, she felt impressed upon by God to take all that she had learned to focus on full-time Kingdom-building work to equip those forgotten and lost to the prison pipeline. Her latest assignment as an ordained prison chaplain sends her into the State and Federal prisons and county jails of California to provide educational resources and special programming to incarcerated men and women and their families.
These programs deliver hope, as well as train and inspire churches and communities, inside and outside of prison, to support the restoration of those affected by crime and incarceration.
In addition to her affiliation with many other community-focused groups in the greater Los Angeles area, Dr. Farabee is an ordained and licensed Reverend, a television host, and sits on both the general and pastoral boards of several community organizations, and is the Executive Director of, "Beyond The Shackles," an in-prison, reentry and restorative justice organization.
