DREAM es una organizaci\u00f3n que siempre ha honrado sus or\u00edgenes. Por eso, tras celebrar nuestro 30.\u00ba aniversario el a\u00f1o pasado, la organizaci\u00f3n ha creado un Consejo de Antiguos Alumnos, un nuevo \u00f3rgano de liderazgo que dar\u00e1 prioridad a la voz de los antiguos alumnos en las decisiones estrat\u00e9gicas de DREAM y trabajar\u00e1 para involucrar a la red de antiguos alumnos de la organizaci\u00f3n, que ahora abarca tres d\u00e9cadas.<\/p>\n
\u201cDREAM ha evolucionado much\u00edsimo desde su fundaci\u00f3n como Harlem RBI en 1991\u201d, declar\u00f3 Richard Berlin, codirector ejecutivo de DREAM. \u201cLa creaci\u00f3n de una junta de exalumnos en este momento re\u00fane todas las experiencias de nuestros antiguos participantes y estudiantes, y crea una voz unificada que desempe\u00f1ar\u00e1 un papel fundamental en el futuro de DREAM\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n
Desde 1991, DREAM ha evolucionado de una liga infantil de b\u00e9isbol gestionada por voluntarios a una red de escuelas p\u00fablicas aut\u00f3nomas que atienden a m\u00e1s de 2000 ni\u00f1os en East Harlem y el sur del Bronx. A lo largo de tres d\u00e9cadas, la organizaci\u00f3n ha puesto en marcha su galardonado programa de verano, que incluye REAL Kids, DREAM University y Rookies; ha fundado seis escuelas p\u00fablicas aut\u00f3nomas de jornada y a\u00f1o escolar extendidos con programas extraescolares gratuitos para todos los estudiantes; ha graduado a su primera promoci\u00f3n de 12.\u00ba grado de la escuela secundaria aut\u00f3noma DREAM; y ha creado un programa de apoyo postsecundario de seis a\u00f1os para ayudar a los exalumnos de DREAM a ingresar y completar sus estudios universitarios, entre muchas otras iniciativas.<\/p>\n
El Consejo de Exalumnos, integrado por 20 miembros, fue creado para representar a quienes han participado en una amplia gama de actividades de DREAM durante las tres d\u00e9cadas de historia de la organizaci\u00f3n, incluidos sus equipos Harlem RBI y sus programas de verano y extraescolares, as\u00ed como a los graduados de las escuelas concertadas de DREAM.<\/p>\n
\u201cMe entusiasma mucho que estemos creando un espacio formal para que nuestros exalumnos apoyen a la organizaci\u00f3n\u201d, dijo la codirectora ejecutiva Eve Colavito. \u201cSu experiencia, mentor\u00eda y conexi\u00f3n con DREAM significan much\u00edsimo para nuestros estudiantes actuales, y ampliar las formas en que los exalumnos pueden participar solo fortalecer\u00e1 nuestro impacto\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cEs importante que los estudiantes actuales conozcan a exalumnos que han pasado por lo mismo que ellos. Y quiero que los exalumnos sepan que su trayectoria con DREAM no ha terminado: pueden seguir ayudando a otros.\u201d<\/h3>\n
Jaylen Amaker '11<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nA medida que DREAM avanza hacia la siguiente etapa de su labor, la organizaci\u00f3n planea triplicar el n\u00famero de ni\u00f1os y ni\u00f1as a los que atiende anualmente, con aproximadamente 100 graduados cada a\u00f1o. La creaci\u00f3n del Consejo de Exalumnos contribuir\u00e1 a que tanto los exalumnos actuales como los futuros se sientan conectados con la organizaci\u00f3n durante este crecimiento. La formaci\u00f3n del Consejo tambi\u00e9n ayuda a impulsar los valores de DEI (Diversidad, Equidad e Inclusi\u00f3n) de DREAM, fomentando el desarrollo del talento y el liderazgo local, y asegurando una mayor participaci\u00f3n de los exalumnos en las decisiones estrat\u00e9gicas de la organizaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n
Jaylen Amaker, estudiante de la Facultad de Derecho de Notre Dame, y Maria Gerena, gerente de programas comunitarios de Asphalt Green en la ciudad de Nueva York, han sido elegidos como los primeros copresidentes del Consejo. Ambos tambi\u00e9n tendr\u00e1n la oportunidad de participar como representantes del Consejo de Exalumnos en la Junta Directiva de DREAM.<\/p>\n
\u201cMe considero una pionera de la organizaci\u00f3n y estoy ansiosa por comenzar a establecer el Consejo de Exalumnos\u201d, dijo Gerena, quien no solo forma parte de la generaci\u00f3n de 2004 de DREAM, sino que tambi\u00e9n fue miembro del personal y ocup\u00f3 diversos cargos en la organizaci\u00f3n, incluyendo trabajadora juvenil, entrenadora y coordinadora de b\u00e9isbol\/softbol. \u201cRealmente me gusta crear algo s\u00f3lido, que pueda funcionar por s\u00ed solo. Ser\u00e1 fant\u00e1stico impulsar el Consejo, dejar nuestra huella y sentar bases s\u00f3lidas\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cQuiero ser ese puente entre la organizaci\u00f3n anterior y la estructura actual\u201d, dijo Amaker, miembro de la promoci\u00f3n de 2011 y tambi\u00e9n integrante del consejo de asociados de Embajadores DREAM de la organizaci\u00f3n. \u201cEs importante que los estudiantes actuales conozcan a exalumnos que han pasado por lo mismo que ellos. Y quiero que los exalumnos sepan que su trayectoria con DREAM no ha terminado: pueden seguir contribuyendo. Cualquiera que sea su camino, pueden continuar ayudando a nuestra comunidad\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n
El Consejo de Exalumnos trabajar\u00e1 para brindar apoyo a los exalumnos actuales y futuros (tambi\u00e9n conocidos como Leyendas de DREAM), a la vez que promueve el conocimiento de DREAM entre su creciente red y defiende la voz de los exalumnos dentro de la organizaci\u00f3n. Los miembros del Consejo tambi\u00e9n participar\u00e1n en uno de los tres subcomit\u00e9s, que se centran en la participaci\u00f3n de los exalumnos, la mentor\u00eda y el voluntariado, y las comunicaciones y las alianzas.<\/p>\n
\u201cEl futuro de la organizaci\u00f3n vendr\u00e1 de dentro\u201d, dijo Amaker. \u201cEl objetivo es que haya m\u00e1s personas como nosotros en estas juntas directivas. Nuestra combinaci\u00f3n de ideas, conocimientos y perspectivas ser\u00e1 lo que nos lleve al siguiente nivel. Y as\u00ed se cerrar\u00e1 el c\u00edrculo\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n
