Bridge to Belonging equips church volunteers with clear tools to handle children's challenging behaviors confidently, so they feel supported, effective, and less likely to burn out or quit.

THE PROBLEM

Vulnerable children struggle to participate in church because their trauma has caused complex behaviors.

Children in your community may have experienced:

Foster care
Adoption
Physical and/or intellectual disabilities
Loss and/or trauma
Mental health issues

These children and their caregivers are at risk and desperately need a church family that is equipped to meet their needs.
