Ready to volunteer with DREAM?
There are a few things we need to cover before we can get you out on the slopes!
DREAM Adaptive Recreation strives to safeguard our sport environments from misconduct, including athlete physical and sexual abuse. As part of our commitment to providing a safe and empowering environment, volunteers with our programs must complete annual sport protection training and pass a background check.
