DREAM ACHIEVERS PROGRAM (DAP)

An innovative initiative created by Teen Advisor Landon Clark, DAP provides mentorship, resources, and workshops for students in Guilford County, from elementary through college-aged. As the first program of its kind in the area, DAP addresses educational barriers faced by youth due to limited resources. By partnering with local school administration and community partners, DAP offers tailored support to help level the playing field for students. We plan to host two events that directly engage these students, empowering them with the tools they need to succeed academically and personally.
