We want to support our teams and the individuals we serve in reaching their dreams - no matter how big or small.
We launched the Dream Project in 2022 as an additional benefit to all employees at Sample Supports.
The mission behind the Dream Project is to model, encourage, and practice personal goal setting and achievement in our workforce with the intention of replicating those skills with the individuals we serve.

How exactly will we do that?
