DREAM Summer Schools & Camps

The DREAM Guzmán Ariza Summer School & Camp is a 4-week educational summer program for at-risk youth in Cabarete. The day camp gives children the chance to go on field trips to areas outside their local community and provides the educational support needed to reverse the trend of increasing dropout rates and risky behavior. The Program offers core subjects such as reading, writing, English and math, all intertwined with more traditional camp-related activities like swimming, art, sports, music and dance. We also offer sexual awareness and health programming through the help of trained counselors from Deportes para la Vida.
