Dreams Over Past Experience(D.O.P.E.) - 2nd Chance Month Storytelling Event
Overview
Join us online for Dreams Over Past Experience, where stories of fresh starts and second chances take center stage.
Second Chance Month Storytelling Event
What if your past wasn’t something to hide… but something to build from?
Dreams Over Past Experience (D.O.P.E.) is a powerful live storytelling event that brings together voices who have faced adversity, overcome the odds, and turned their experiences into purpose.
This isn’t just another panel.
This is real, unfiltered truth.

What You’ll Experience
- Raw Stories of Transformation
- Hear from individuals who have navigated incarceration, setbacks, and systemic barriers—and came out stronger.
- Real Conversations About Second Chances
We’re tackling the gap between punishment and opportunity—and what it actually takes to rebuild.
- Voices That Need to Be Heard
From community leaders to emerging voices, this event creates space for honesty, healing, and growth.
- Actionable Insight
Walk away with perspective shifts, practical wisdom, and a renewed sense of what’s possible—for yourself or those you serve.

Who This Is For
- Justice-impacted individuals seeking direction and inspiration
Community leaders, mentors, and advocates
Mental wellness professionals and support organizations
Anyone who believes people are more than their past

Why This Event Matters
Second chances aren’t given. They’re built.
And too many people are trying to rebuild without access, without support, and without a platform to be heard.
D.O.P.E. exists to change that.

Come check out La Onda, NFP ArtScene that we are hosting this weekend! Thank you for the opportunity to have it here 🙌🏽

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Comprehensive Community Solutions, Inc. (CCS) for the opportunity to host the Art Scene this Friday and Saturday.

You may have walked by this building numerous times without ever stepping inside, but this weekend is your chance to explore! We invite you to come in, check out the art on display, and learn more about CCS. There’s ample parking available, and the main entrance is located at the back of the building, opposite the street. Don’t worry; there will be plenty of signage to guide you.

This is not only a chance to enjoy some incredible art but also to discover the vital work CCS does in our community. Founded in 1992 in Rockford, IL, CCS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to driving community transformation by empowering at-risk youth and residents. Through its flagship program, YouthBuild Rockford, CCS provides education, construction job training, and leadership development, all while working to build affordable housing.

We look forward to seeing you there and sharing this special experience!

Meet Estefanny Cruz, one of the facilitators supporting the newest Getting Ahead cohort at Comprehensive Community Solutions. Estefanny is committed to youth development through mentorship, creativity, and community engagement. She has served as a peer mentor with Leaders Igniting Transformation and as a facilitator with Artists Working in Education, where she supported young people in building leadership skills and expressing themselves through community based art. She now serves as an Alumni and Placement Specialist with YouthBuild Rockford at CCS, helping young adults navigate career pathways and long term success. Her background also includes early childhood education and work with the YMCA Children’s Learning Center. Across all of her roles, she is driven by a passion for empowering youth, fostering creativity, and strengthening community connections.

Estefanny is excited for the opportunity to engage youth in meaningful, real life conversations that provide impactful knowledge and encourage personal growth. She values the chance to connect with students in ways that help them reflect, ask questions, and build skills they can carry forward.

As she looks ahead to the class, Estefanny hopes to continue developing her skills as a facilitator while creating a space where youth feel comfortable being vulnerable and engaging in necessary, sometimes difficult, conversations. She is eager to learn alongside participants and support them as they explore their own experiences and goals.

We are grateful to work alongside Estefanny as she brings her insight, creativity, and care to this cohort.
