Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Mentoring is a proven strategy that works. If you've ever thought about becoming a mentor, Project DREAM is an ideal springboard to providing guidance and friendship to children of incarcerated parents. Project DREAM is a career based mentoring program which identifies a profession or industry of interest to 4th-8th grade students and connects each with an adult, like you, who can provide insight and direction in pursuing the chosen profession. Are you ready for the most rewarding role in your life?
