The first $60 million of the Dream Keeper Initiative for Fiscal Year 2020-21 will go towards some of the programs that we provide at Collective Impact: Youth Development and Education, City Employment Pipelines, Workforce Training and Development, Business and Entrepreneur Support, Health and Wellbeing, Housing and Homeownership.
