U.S. Dream Academy is a non-profit organization with a commitment to inspire and invest in the lives of children of incarcerated parents and families in communities harmed by systemic inequities. Every year, the U.S. Dream Academy partners with local schools to deliver robust after-school programs and mentoring to students living in communities impacted by mass incarceration. DreamKids in grades 2 through 12 spend 10 to 15 hours each week in a stimulating learning environment that offers them ample opportunities for growth. Against the backdrop of supportive relationships we challenge our DreamKids to develop a growth mindset as we provide support, share power and expand opportunities. Mentors meet once a week with DreamKids(mentees) for one hour. Using the DreamJourney curriculum, mentors facilitate engaging activities that foster connection with mentees and build a developmental relationship that helps mentees build the developmental assets they need to thrive. Sessions take place online in our secure virtual mentoring platform, MentorCloud.
