Our Six Pillars of Support
OUR PROGRAM PILLARS
“I Have A Dream” Atlanta takes a comprehensive, holistic approach to support the success of each child in our program. We believe in a multi-faceted approach, including individualized academic support, robust and early mentoring networks, social and emotional life skills, health and wellness coaching, fostering civic engagement, ensuring career readiness, emphasizing financial literacy and resources, and exposure to culture and the arts. We offer this comprehensive, wrap-around program to Dreamer Scholars beginning in early elementary school and continuing "to and through" adulthood. Dreamer Scholars receive post-secondary scholarship to pursue the educational path of their dreams and the comfort of knowing IHDF-Atlanta is on their team—from first grade to their first job.
