Summer Enrichment Coordinator - Philadelphia

Summer Enrichment Coordinator - Philadelphia

We address our mission by providing programming for youth in the neighborhoods we serve: Afterschool Enrichment, Village Mentoring, and Summer Enrichment.

Our DREAMCorps help to plan and execute programming throughout our regions during the school year and summertime. The DREAM Program is committed to dismantling systems of oppression that affect our youth and families. This organizational commitment means that members should join this space with an intention of learning, unlearning, and diving into ways that your involvement will directly contribute to DREAM's mission of reducing the Opportunity Gap while also supporting the dismantling of other systemic inequities.
