Palmdale Dream Center
About Palmdale Dream Center
The 2014 opening of the Palmdale Dream Center resulted from collaborative efforts in providing stable and affordable housing for at-risk young adults 18-24 years of age by the City of Palmdale, Advancing Communities Together (ACT), Antelope Valley Youthbuild, and Paving the Way.
Since opening our doors, we have accepted young adults who may have been emancipated. Aged out of the foster care system, and/or lacked positive support systems, who in their efforts to thrive found it difficult to succeed in society. The current goal of Palmdale Dream Center Representatives is to deliver supportive services to these young adults while they seek success and productivity as they integrate into their community and the greater society. This transitional housing facility offers weekly, monthly activities, and workshop opportunities while maintaining a positive environment where these young adults can build the support systems and skills necessary for individual and societal growth.
The Purpose of Palmdale Dream Center
The purpose of Palmdale Dream Center is to provide quality affordable housing for the Palmdale community, and youth who may have few, if any alternatives to the cycles of residential instability, lack of education, incarceration and unemployment.
Current Properties include:
- Palmdale Dream Center
- Q2 Duplex
- 10TH Place
