The Organization:

Since 2011, Dream Centers, a faith-based nonprofit, has provided health and hope to those rebuilding their dreams. Dream Centers includes a Women’s Clinic offering medical care, professional counseling, and a full suite of wrap-around services. Our second program, Mary’s Home, is a multi-year program offering trauma-informed care, life-skills training, education, job development, and positive role modeling in a high-challenge, high-support environment for single-mother families experiencing homelessness. Our newest initiative, Big Dream Early Learning, is an innovative early learning center that helps children from birth to age six bridge the gap between early childhood trauma and the hopeful future they deserve. Our holistic approach is designed to heal from the inside out, empowering women and children to rebuild their dreams and exit homelessness permanently.
