Operation DREAM is a nonprofit serving young men of color in Milwaukee through mentoring and Job Readiness Training. 98% of the young men they serve come from single parent households with no positive male role models.

Marco Morrison, Executive Director of Operation DREAM joins us with Nahjee Robinson, a Member of Operation Work who is finishing his senior year. They are here to explain how Operation DREAM helps young men reach their potential through their various programs and how they are different from other youth service organizations in the area.

Go to their website www.operation-dream.org to make a donation or sign up to be a volunteer to assist with the various programs that they offer such as virtual tutoring and mentoring opportunities.
