The DREAM (Disability, Resources, Educational Advocacy, Motivation) Institute is a non-profit volunteer organization formed in 2002 with the sole mission of establishing scholarship resources for students with disabilities aspiring to attend higher education.
The DREAM Institute is dedicated to enriching and increasing the success of the higher educational experience of students with disabilities through a three-fold approach, which includes: academic and professional mentorship; academic assistance and scholastic awards. Current funding is for Oklahoma students to attend an in-state institution. Part of the stratgeic plan is to expand to other states in the future based on funding.
The Institute was founded by the Cofounders Kristy Long and Rodney Bryan Pratz and is governed by a Board of Trustees. The founder's inspiration for the Institute comes from battling and overcoming their own disabilities.
