Healing People. Empowering Youth. Transforming Communities.
Identify Your Dream (IDYD) creates trauma-informed spaces where youth, families, and communities impacted by adversity can heal, grow, and discover their purpose.
Healing Forward. Dreaming Beyond.
Healing Children that have been impacted by trauma
Identify Your Dream was founded in 2015 in honor of Dean J. Samuel, an incredible young man from Pontiac whose life was tragically taken by violence, leaving behind a young son and a community forever changed. From this loss, a vision was born to create a space where youth and families impacted by trauma could find healing, support, and renewed hope.

We create safe, trauma-informed spaces where youth and families can process experiences, build emotional awareness, and strengthen coping skills.
Mentorship & Youth Development
Through the Dreamers Mentoring Program and leadership initiatives, young people develop confidence, identity, and purpose.
