Several years ago, Executive Director Jenifer Frommeyer had a vision. She dreamed of being able to build a new residential building to provide housing for additional Dreams With Wings clients. She dreamed that with modern construction methods this new housing opportunity would have extra wide doorways to easily accommodate wheelchairs, have durable flooring and modern conveniences. Because of that vision, the “Building Dreams” project was born. Dreams With Wings submitted and was awarded a HUD 811 grant. This grant would provide 8 units developmental disabilities. Now all that was needed was the land on which to build. The project became a reality when Very Rev. Alexander Atty and the leaders of St. Michael Church on Hikes Lane became aware of the project. They generously provided DWW with a long-term lease which has allowed Dreams to build this residential supported housing on their property. Ground was broken in December of 2008 and while the weather was less than desirable, the warmth and excitement of that day was unbelievable. The units are currently under construction and will be completed sometime in early summer. Dreams With Wings looks forward to providing supports for 8 additional individuals and thanks HUD and the people of St. Michael for their unbelievable compassion and generosity.
