Howdy and welcome to the Dare to Dream Program website. If you don’t already know what Dare to Dream is all about, here is the low down... The Dare to Dream Program is coordinated by youth and designed for youth, like you, who are interested in making your peers and community more aware of mental illness and decreasing the stigma that is typically associated with it.

Dare to Dream Awards are given out twice a year – at the end of March and the end of October. Deadlines are always posted on the Dare to Dream home page. Successful applicants are notified about five to six weeks after each deadline – in early May and in early December.

This is your chance to stand up and help the 20% of youth in your school and community who struggle with mental illness on a daily basis.

If you or a group of friends have an idea for a project and are interested in making this idea come to life, you will find all of the resources to help you right here.
