| Mission Statement |
| We are resolved as an organization to assist peers/people (which includes adults, children and families) in achieving their own dreams and to live their lives as they so desire. We believe and are resolved to reducing stigma and helping everyone that has been dis-empowered by the system to help them and teach them the skills they need to move forward with their lives. Dreamweavers is based on two concepts by blending the best of what "peers" have to offer with the best of what "providers" have to offer with A White Paper and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). In the merging of these two concepts, Dreamweavers strives to offer the best of both worlds to those that need and want the help and the guidance to remedy their current situations, no matter what those situations might be. We at Dreamweavers Peer Support also have the convictions that the help that is wanted is just that...wanted. We do not believe nor do we push people to get help in any way, whether it be medication, therapy or any combination thereof. It is our theory that only those people that WANT to get better...really CAN get better. In essence, what we are striving for is "leveling the playing field between people and providers." What this means is that we want to make it so that people can talk freely to providers and the providers, in return, can speak to the people in a language that the people can understand so that they may know what is going on and what is needed of them to better their lives. |
