How much does it cost?
The cost is $59 a night per person. This includes room and board. You have the opportunity to purchase Dream Center hats, t-shirts and other great merchandise on campus. There are also vending machines and a café that you might want to bring extra spending money for.

What is the dress code?
The Dream Center sends outreach teams into the neediest areas of Los Angeles. While you are here, you are representing the Dream Center and a Christian lifestyle. It is very important that all volunteers/visiting team members dress modestly and in such a way that does not draw attention to themselves. Dress code regulations are as follows:
1. No spaghetti strapped, midriff, low cut or sleeveless tops.
2. Shorts or skirts must be knee length
3. Closed shoes must be worn on outreaches and campus work assignments.

Will transportation be provided?
We ask that you provide your own transportations while you’re here in L.A.. We can recommend several rental companies for you to call. Click HERE for a rental list.

What is the age limit?
No one under the age of 15 is allowed on this trip. Younger youth are often not ready for the challenges of the Dream Center environments.

What are the accommodations?
During your stay at the Dream Center, you will share rooms with between 6 to 12 people. None of the rooms have showers, but most have bathrooms. Due to the sometimes large number of people visiting on a weekly basis, you might also have to share rooms with people from other teams and other parts of the world. Short Term Missions will provide bedding and towels.
