Overview  of BRIDGE Inc.

The BRIDGE organization envisions a  world where all youth are equipped with the necessary life skills required to   appreciate the power that is harnessed in their uniqueness, consistently  visualize their potential and resiliently pursue their dreams.  Our BRIDGE Youth program was created for at risk teens in Tifton, Georgia and is  anchored around providing activities that empower the engaged youth and equip  them with key life skills to effectively navigate challenges and evolution. The programs are offered on a monthly   basis and focus on self-awareness, self-respect, respecting others, leadership, team building and goal planning.
