Dream Forward Mission

The Dream Forward Initiative — powered by the WODE Athlete Center — exists to inspire and empower the next generation of student-athletes to believe in their dreams and move them forward through mindset, discipline, and daily action.

Rooted in WODE’s commitment to development, leadership, and purpose, Dream Forward provides opportunities for youth to learn, grow, and compete while building confidence, character, and community.

Through the Jr. NBA and Jr. WNBA Leagues, mentorship programs, and school partnerships, Dream Forward challenges young people to dream bigger, work harder, and lead stronger — both on and off the court.

Because dreams don’t stand still — they move forward.
