What We Offer
We offer: Educational support, recreational sports & activities, mentoring relationships, and a youth group for students in middle school and high school (and a summer soccer camp for younger kids). We also offer ongoing mentoring, volunteer opportunities and leadership development for young adults after graduation. Through our partnerships with local organizations & leaders, we offer special needs assistance and direct referrals for Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (Healthy Choices), Pregnancy & Parenting Services (Informed Choices) and Gang Prevention & Intervention (Frontline Street Interventions). We have webpages listed above for some of these services, which have links to their respective websites.
Guidelines & Policies: we do background checks on all adults who work with students at The Bridge. We also require a minimum of two approved leaders or volunteers to be present for all Bridge sponsored activities. For detailed information, click on: Guidelines & Policies (also listed under the "Who We Are" tab above).
Referrals & Networking: One key aspect of our mission is to refer young people & their families to other resources in the community. We promote organizations, churches, businesses, and so forth, who work with young people or families in areas such as education, spiritual development, gang prevention & intervention, pregnancy & parenting assistance, special education, or job skills & employment. See our "Referrals & Networking" webpage above for a current list, and feel free to contact us with other recommendations to add. Thank you.
