Project Transformation is a nonprofit, Christian organization serving communities in Dallas, Oklahoma, and Tennessee. Project Transformation provides two primary services: (1) Socially conscious leadership training and ministry exploration for college-aged interns; and (2) Academic, health, spiritual, and recreational programming for children and youth.
Project Transformation provides the first service by offering young adults who are interested in service and ministry a one-year internship during our after-school program or a ten-week internship during the summer months. During the internships, young adults participate in ongoing training and service opportunities, live in community with their peers, and take part in regular meetings with community and church leaders to explore different careers in ministry and service.
The interns, in turn, plan and provide the academic, spiritual, and enrichment programs for children and youth, including after-school programs, summer day camps, mountain biking excursions, and an overnight camping experience. Components of Project Transformation's programs include one-on-one reading enrichment, arts and crafts, nutritious meals, and interaction with the young adults interns who encourage students to stay in school and attend college.
Project Transformation in Dallas is an AmeriCorps agency, with the 100 annual interns serving as AmeriCorps members.

Famous quotes containing the word project:
“In 1862 the congregation of the church forwarded the church bell to General Beauregard to be melted into cannon, “hoping that its gentle tones, that have so often called us to the House of God, may be transmuted into war’s resounding rhyme to repel the ruthless invader from the beautiful land God, in his goodness, has given us.””
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
