Dream Boards & Letters to Your Future Self – A Hope-Building Curriculum Module
For many people—especially those impacted by systems—dreaming about the future can feel impossible.

This lesson changes that.
 
Through a carefully guided series of reflections, creative exercises, and future-focused writing prompts, participants learn to see themselves not through the lens of their past, but through the possibilities ahead. They create visual dream boards, write letters to their future selves, and begin mapping a life they feel proud of.
 
This module is part of E360 Reentry That Works, a program built by lived experience and shaped alongside educators, community leaders, and young adults themselves. It’s more than a lesson—it’s an act of empowerment.
 
Use this lesson to help young people:
• Build hope and direction
• Strengthen decision-making skills
• Discover their personal values
• Connect dreams to concrete actions
• Envision a future worth fighting for
 
Perfect for any program committed to healing, growth, and liberation.
