DESCRIPTION
SANNEH FOUNDATION MISSION
The mission of Sanneh is to Empower youth, Improve lives, and Unite communities. Sanneh empowers youth by supporting and promoting educational attainment through in-school and after-school support, improves lives by providing programs that strengthen physical health and social and emotional development, and unite communities by advancing diversity, equity, and community well-being.
VALUES:
| · Building Community
· Caring & Compassion · Diversity & Inclusion |
· Education
· Integrity · Inspiring Excellence |
· Innovation & Leadership
· Fun · Character Building |
DREAMLINE GOALS
Dreamline partners with K-12th grade schools to provide culturally competent mentoring, and direct social emotional instruction to support three core dimensions of a student’s development: social, emotional, and cognitive. This helps young people define their own path to success by helping them to (1) engage with their peers, school, and community; (2) improve their emotional well-being; (3) discover academic success and graduate from high school; and (4) prepare for life after high school.
Mentors are expected to work with students in the following ways:
- Goal 1: Advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice.
- Goal 2: Build trusted relationships with young people, parents, school staff, and community members.
- Goal 3: Empower youth through social emotional learning (SEL).
- Goal 4: Work together with students, parents, school staff, and community members as advocates and partners in student learning and wellbeing.
The Dreamline program is grounded in the theory that students who develop meaningful relationships with trusted adults begin to develop positive attitudes toward school, themselves, and their future. In partnership with K-12th grade schools, Dreamline Mentors intentionally engage underrepresented and marginalized students through the Search Institute’s Developmental Relationships framework to create deep and meaningful connections.
POSITION DESCRIPTION
The Dreamline Site Coordinator is typically an experienced Dreamline Mentor or youth development specialist who works to develop strong partnerships with school administration and staff and to support the Dreamline program delivery team at their school site.
