DreamTree project
"Housing & compassionate support services for youth, adults & families in crisis."
DreamTree Project is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to providing housing and compassionate support services to New Mexico youth. Located in Taos, DreamTree Project offers emergency teen shelter, a transitional living program, street outreach, and resources for youth throughout northern New Mexico, including Colfax, Mora, Rio Arriba, Taos, and Union counties.
Dreamtree’s NEST facility offers emergency shelter and supportive services for adults and families in our community who are experiencing housing insecurity.
Founded by a group of concerned Taoseñas, who united nearly 20 years ago to help find housing solutions for local youth, DreamTree is committed to carrying on their mission. Our vision is that all New Mexico youth have stability, support, and the opportunity to pursue their dreams. We are based in Taos County and conduct outreach throughout the northeast region of the state.
