what we do

"Sometimes we ask for help and God gives us hope; not because it's different, but because it's the same" -Bob Goff

At the Springfield Dream Center, we offer a variety of programs designed to help families achieve long-term stability. Each program is focused on providing either immediate assistance or hope for the future for the families we serve. All of our programs are free and available to those who qualify. We are committed to supporting families every step of the way!

COMMUNITY NIGHTS

Join us on the first Tuesday of every month for Community Night at the Dream Center! We’ll be providing a free, hot meal and hosting a community partner.

STEP CLASSES

Each month, the Dream Center will offer a variety of classes designed to build community and help you take your next steps. On the first Tuesday of each month, we invite you to join us for an open event—enjoy a free meal while learning about the classes we’ll be offering that month. Then, for the next three Tuesdays, come back to enjoy a meal while you continue to learn and grow through these engaging classes. We look forward to seeing you there!

COMMUNITY CARE

Join us as we create moments of intentional connection and care right here in the DC Neighborhood! We have multiple opportunities throughout the week to get involved, including Neighborhood Fridays and Pop-Up Parties. It’s a great way to connect with others, build community, and make a positive impact in the neighborhood. We’d love to have you be a part of it!

DC Academy is an afterschool program dedicated to helping students build social and emotional learning skills, running Monday through Friday. The program is available to students in grades K-8 who attend Bowerman Elementary or Reed Middle School.

New for the 2024-2025 school year, we’re excited to offer a high school program for Hillcrest High School students. The program will run from 3:10 PM to 5:30 PM and will focus on career and college readiness, as well as opportunities for students to give back to their community. We’re thrilled to expand and continue supporting students at all levels!
