Who We Are
At Dreamcatchers Costa Rican Children Foundation, we’re on a mission to create a safer future for Nosara’s youth by preventing violence and drug abuse in at-risk youth aged 7 to 17.
Our approach centers on developing essential social skills as protective factors using tenderness pedagogy and artistic methods, involving our students in art, dance, music, and self-expression immersive experiences year-round.
