This past July, the D2 Center moved from our temporary space on the third floor to our permanent space on the fifth floor of The Center at 42nd & Center St. Our new space is larger, with room for staff offices, a reception area, and a classroom that doubles as a conference room. Over the summer we began to meet with students and piloted our first elective credit course, Literacy and Life Skills. We’ve spent the last couple months settling in, training staff, and preparing to see more students. If you or someone you know is age 15-20 and has dropped out of school or is thinking of dropping out, we’d like to talk to you! Please give us a call at 402-502-8534 with any questions and to see if you qualify for our program.
The D2 Center recently received a $10,000 grant through Doris Buffett’s Sunshine Lady Foundation and the University of Nebraska at Omaha’s Learning by Giving philanthropy class.
Welcome to the D2 Center website. The D2 Center is a brand-new initiative from Building Bright Futures. Our goal is to reconnect out-of-school youth into an educational pathway. We serve youth ages 15-20 in Douglas and Sarpy Counties. The D2 in “D2 Center” stands for Directions and Diploma; we believe there are different directions students can take to get to a diploma, and we’re here to help you get there.
