Dream Forward is a professional development and community engagement program designed to support young adults who have graduated from a Deep East Texas high school. The program provides guidance, mentorship, and a strong sense of community throughout their post-secondary education journey and transition into the workforce.
Once accepted, fellows remain in the program until they complete their post-secondary education. After graduation, they become alumni, gaining access to exclusive resources, webinars, and opportunities. Alumni also have the chance to give back by mentoring current fellows, fostering a cycle of support and growth.
The goal for the program is to empower young adults from Deep East Texas who are enrolled in post-secondary education programs by providing community-driven initiatives, financial support, mentorship, and professional development opportunities.
