DREAM CENTERS OF MICHIGAN

FOOD PANTRY: Food Pantry: 2nd & 4th Fridays of the month from 2-4:00pm. Location: Woodside Bible Church Pontiac, 830 Auburn Ave. Pontiac. Registration is not required.

EDUCATION:  The Dream Center offers programming for local youth, grades K-5, nurturing them intellectually, physically and spiritually. By surrounding them with a community of love, resources and development, we strive to set youth on a path of transformation that will carry them forward for the rest of their lives.

KIDS CLUB AFTERSCHOOL: Dream Centers of Michigan offers Kids Club Afterschool, a structured and engaging program designed to support the academic, social, and spiritual development of students in grades 1-5.
The program takes place on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM at the UWM Sports Complex in partnership with Relmagine Recreation. Limited transportation is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Each session is intentionally designed to meet students  where they are and help them grow in meaningful ways:

RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM:  The Dream Center is dedicated to helping support young men (ages 18-24) by providing resources for educational learning, job training, career placement, discipleship and a supportive community. The goal is for participants to graduate, practicing a healthy lifestyle that promotes and maintains self-sustainability. Change a young man’s life you change the community.

COMMUNITY DEVELOMENT:  Developing a community starts with developing people, but after offering education and employment, we cannot neglect or ignore the physical needs, most importantly, the need for quality, affordable housing. Dream Centers of Michigan is committed to meeting the housing needs of low-income families and individuals by offering multi-family units, renovating existing homes and building new homes for ownership and equity in the Pontiac Community.

DREAM WORKS SOCIAL ENTERPRISE:  An enterprise, right in the community, allowing people with barriers to employment an opportunity to acquire technical and soft skills necessary to work in the marketplace and earn a living wage, moving them toward self-sustainability. This employment experience on-site at the Dream Center includes – life skill classes, career development, behavioral health services, employment, transportation and childcare – free of charge. Adults who complete this program have learned to set personal and professional goals, learned marketable technical skills and often times, for the first time, believe they can actually achieve their dreams.
