Welcome to the OKC Dream Center

The Oklahoma City Dream Center exists to reach, rescue, and restore people isolated by poverty in OKC by meeting basic needs, preventative programs for at-risk kids and youth, relationships and referrals through our Community Resource Center, and our Dream Living Transitional Program for men.

Our vision is to build a community of resilient people who have been transformed by God’s love. The people whose lives are impacted by our programs go on to share that love with others, serving in the community and making transformation possible for others.

Renovating for the next men! Over three years ago, our heart cry to help restore fatherhood to our surrounding community lead us to start our DC Living program for men. Since the program’s beginning, we have seen over 75 men served through the program. Dream Center Living is a safe Christian residential program on the campus of Inner City Church for men seeking a sober life through Christ. This is intended for men leaving prison or rehab who desire to live a life free from addiction. All residents will have a history of choices that leads to them needing the program, but the program is intended for men who want a transformative relationship with Jesus Christ. Residents are expected to have a strong desire for the spiritual environment the program seeks to foster. The program’s goal is to empower men through Christ to develop the character, relationships, and resources needed to live free from addiction and crime and in a manner that benefits themselves and the community. 2020 has brought many unforeseen challenges for many people and organizations with ours not being excluded. At the end of the month of July, our main building used for housing the program was hit by severe wind damage from a storm that ripped off a third of the roof. While we are waiting for the repairs to be made, we have begun to go back to our cabin roots where the program first began. The cabin structure on our property has been vacant for most of the past year and has some much needed “TLC” to get ready for those men that have made plans to come into the program in the next two months and into 2021. We believe that there are enough of our supporters out there that have truly been waiting to help but are not sure (with covid restrictions/guide lines) how to participate. We would like to ask our partners like you if you can be involved in providing any of the following furnishings in order to get our cabin ready to continue changing lives: 1. (7) bed frames with mattress. 2. (7) sets of sheets, pillows, and blankets. 3. (7) simple nightstands with a drawer 4. Lamp, alarm clock, and bible for each night stand 5. (7) small dressers. (This would make for a uniform furnishing in every room so people would not be switching around.) 6. A working 4 burner stove with oven. 7. Dishwasher. 8. New refrigerator. 9. Washer/Dryer 10. A set of the wire racks for the bathroom with (7) shower caddys for residents. We believe that restoring fatherhood begins with helping men make successful transitions back into life and society. We are excited to continue seeing men be transformed through DC Living for years to come. If you can help with any of the listed needs above, please contact us at info@dcokc.org and let’s get started! We appreciate everyone of you that continue to support the OKC Dream Center and make our mission possible every day! OKC Dream Center
