Programs & Initiatives
What are we up to?
Ongoing Programs
Language Access
Accessible English classes for adults.
​
Dream Maker provides free English classes for adults. This program focuses on helping migrants & refugees acquire the English language and/or improve their current skills.
​
Our goal is for non native English speakers to have the tools to succeed and integrate, whether it be at school, work, or in their communities.
​
We believe the acquisition of English as a second language will create a stronger, more united, and integrated nation.
Initiatives
Community Outreach
Through numerous initiatives and projects, Dream Maker finds ways to strengthen and uplift not only individuals but communities.
​
Through events, workshops, concerts, classes, and more, Dream Maker promotes community building, cultural collaboration and experiences, educational opportunities and intercultural communication.
​​​
​We work with underserved populations to provide the link needed to help them thrive. Helping us have happier, healthier, and stronger communities.
Although we do serve low-income, and limited language access populations, we also work with rural areas who often lack access to services.
Navigation & Coaching
Accessible & Personalized Coaching
​
Dream Maker provides one on one, personalized navigation services free of cost. Our goal is to help individuals create and meet personal goals such as:
​
-look & apply for employment
-look & apply for education (trade schools, GED, College, University, etc.)
-obtain a driver's license
-open a bank account
-learn how to use public transport
-learn how to prepare for job interviews
​
We help individuals meet their goals by accompanying them step by step throughout the process. This includes creating appointments, filling in forms, helping them create a CV, showing them how to apply for work, and walking them through each individual task to meet their goals.
​
All of our navigation services are educational. Throughout this process, the people we serve are learning and practicing basic skills which they will be able to utilize in the future. This program not only enables people to identify, plan, and complete goals, but aids their independence in the longterm.
