The Centre for Dreams is grateful to be celebrating our 25th Anniversary! Our program started off small in Elaine Vollett’s basement serving a few members of the community. Little did she know, our program would grow to be as great as it is today. At the end of 2016, we had 33 members. Not only has our program excelled to be more functional for our members, but we also have volunteer job placements for our members to practice their in-house skills! Every day The Centre for Dreams staff works with our members to teach them the different skills necessary to lead independent lives and more importantly, be able to live their dreams! We look forward to celebrating another 25 years!

25th Anniversary - Dreams Throughout the Years
Award’s Night is The Centre for Dream’s favourite night of the year! Our shining stars walked down the red carpet and posed for the camera as the community came together to celebrate our members’ accomplishments! There are many supporters of The Centre for Dreams and we take this night to recognize all the hard work that they do! Many people from our community are given awards such as work placement relationships, outstanding volunteers, and major contributors. We were lucky to have had over 130 members of the community join us for this eventful night!
