The Mission
The Dream Center is a non-profit outreach dedicated to implement programs that meet the needs, help the hurts, and solve the problems of the inner-city by developing new and creative methods to communicate a positive message to those who would otherwise never hear it. Made up of many races, nationalities, and cultures, the Dream Center has an open door policy, operating twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year!
We strive to help solve moral decay, crime, drug, gang, homelessness, and poverty epidemics that exist in our nations inner-cities. The vision of The Dream Center is to see thousands of hurting people come to know a new life through the efforts of our staff, volunteers, and recently rehabilitated individuals whose lives have been dramatically changed. We work to partner with people all around the world to reach the lost and help meet the communities needs, both great and small!
The Effect
With over 150 active ministries reaching out at all times of the day and night, thousands of hurting people in Los Angeles now have a way of hope.

The mayor and City Council have publicly acknowledged the dramatic impact of the Dream Center, and in 1998, President Bush visited the Dream Center and deemed it as "a model for faith-based organizations."
