Vision Statement: To build and expand the reach of “ I Have a Dream” and our Dreamer classes by increasing awareness of our program and community volunteer involvement in Carbon Valley.

Mission Statement: We will do this by participating in existing Carbon Valley community events, tapping into communication outlets throughout the community and presenting to local civic groups, businesses, community organizations, religious groups, etc.

Goal: Conduct outreach and volunteer recruitment to successfully support the Carbon Valley Dreamers in the Fall, Spring, and Summer programs. Recruit mentors who will be matched, one -on- one, with Carbon Valley Dreamers after the program has been established for one year.
