The “I Have A Dream” Foundation – Los Angeles provides long-term support to youth living in under-resourced communities to empower them to fulfill their potential and achieve their dreams. We empower our students with our in-school, after-school, year-round, and long-term academic, social, emotional, and experiential support—all designed to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty. We work with them for 10+ years, from elementary school, through high school and college, along with guaranteed tuition and support for their post-secondary education. The sponsored youth (Dreamer Scholars) we serve, come from the economically-disadvantaged Los Angeles communities of Boyle Heights, Inglewood, and Watts. These are communities that suffer from particularly high school dropout rates. Due to the communities in which our students live, our students suffer from trauma three to four times more than their peers. Dreamer Scholars are not the only ones who benefit from the program; siblings, parents, other students in the school, and local community members also feel the positive impact of IHADLA's educational and enrichment offerings.
