DREAM
 
 
 
DREAM’s mission is to build communities of families and college students that empower youth from affordable housing neighborhoods to recognize their options, make informed decisions and achieve their dreams. All of our DREAM youth receive consistent, year-round DREAM programming, from elementary school through high school graduation and into college and career. DREAM is a small but growing organization and after a successful expansion to Boston in 2009, DREAM saw tremendous opportunity in the city of brotherly love and launched in Philadelphia this past December. AmeriCorps has played a significant role in DREAM since our inception, helping strengthen our program model and providing critical capacity building support to grow our reach. DREAM places a high premium on having fun, dreaming big, thinking outside the box and creating opportunities for youth to thrive and believe that anything is possible! DREAM’s Village Mentoring model builds upon the adage that “it takes a village to raise a child” and uses a community oriented approach to mentoring and empowering youth living in affordable housing. If you want to work for an organization which encourages you to be creative, silly, energetic, thoughtful and passionate about creating positive changes for youth, than maybe you’d like to join our team. We are currently seeking two Program Empowerment Directors for our recently launched Philadelphia office.
