Bridging the Gap was initiated to serve court-involved and at-risk or high risk youth ages 12-18. The goal is to educate youth on the resources and tools needed to make better decisions for themselves and attain a more promising future, and includes a twelve-unit life skills curriculum, designed by The Salvation Army, focusing on prevention and intervention. All young people are welcome.
