e3 Mentoring at the Seacoast Dream Center

The mission of the e3 program is to help the youth of the Dream Center and the larger community to become productive citizens who make positive contributions, good choices and love God. With the introduction of the e3 Mentoring Program, Dream Mentors are trained and equipped to achieve the objective of educating, empowering and elevating the students of the Dream Center. Building better lives and transforming communities is vital to our core mission and we believe one of the most impactful ways to accomplish this goal is to mentor students in 5 specific areas: Spiritual, Academic, Leadership, Life Skills and Health and Wellness. The e3 program targets kids from 5th to 12th grades and are matched one-on-one with their mentors.

Commitment: The mentors are expected to meet with their kids on a monthly basis in the community and are encouraged to participate in organized activities and events held throughout the year at the Dream Center.

NRPLT delivers their message through song, dance, mime, skits and testimonies.
