<h3>Job Description</h3>
Job DescriptionSalary: $750 biweekly

Are you looking for a rewarding, creative, youth-centered, team-oriented and FUN summer job? Consider joining us at DREAM!

We provide these services to marginalized communities, for youth and families who each have unique backgrounds and lived experiences.
