The New “D.R.E.A.M.” Program

The New D.R.E.A.M. literally saved my life. After 20 years of Incarceration, I had no clue what I was going to do. New D.R.E.A.M. accepted me as I was and helped me enroll in the College of Alameda (CoA). Now I have graduated from the ATLAS program with a certificate which helped assist me with getting employment. I amconcurrently enrolled in CoA and UC Berkeley to obtain my B.A. for more stable employment. New D.R.E.A.M. has helped coach me to secure my own place in the world. Now I’m in pursuit of starting my own business. New D.R.E.A.M. is the way to go.
