Our 2026 Healthcare Career Immersion Experience has wrapped, and the results speak for themselves! 💜

Over six weeks, 8 youth showed up consistently, week after week, to explore real healthcare careers hands-on at Gateway Vista.

The outcomes:
✅ 4/8 students landed jobs with Nye Health Services, with 3 of them stepping into healthcare for the very first time.
✅ Students walked away with newly polished resumes & TBF resume folders, as they continue their education and pursuit in their future healthcare careers.
✅ Students earned a Certificate of Completion and verified service hours.
✅ Students received recommendation letters, to help with their future aspirations.

This is what Bridging Dreams To Destinations looks like in action. Proud of every young person who showed up and did the work!✨

🍽️ Week 3 recap of our Healthcare Career Immersion Experience is officially in the books!

This week our students traded the classroom for the kitchen, exploring Culinary Services, one of the many roles that keep healthcare running. They learned directly from Gateway Vista's Director of Culinary Services, sat down together for dinner, then got hands on in the kitchen themselves.

Healthcare isn't just nursing and rehab, it's the culinary teams nourishing residents every single day. Another pathway explored. Another door opened. 🌉

We are so excited to spotlight Allen, a dedicated member of our Board of Directors who has been part of The Bridge Foundation family since 2025! ✨

Allen first began his journey with us bringing a rare combination, the clinical expertise of a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner and the heart of someone who has never stopped showing up for his community. As a Social Worker serving students in schools and a Mental Health Advocate holding his MSW and PLMHP, Allen understands something most people overlook: you cannot build a future if you are not well enough to stand in it.

"Taking care of yourself is not a luxury. It is the foundation everything else is built on."— Allen

For Allen, this work is personal. Whether he is supporting students as a school social worker, leading as a distinguished member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., thrifting for hidden gems, or carefully tending to his plant collection, Allen moves through life with intention, curiosity, and care. That same energy is exactly what he brings to TBF's board. He knows what it means to mentor young people not just toward careers but toward wholeness. He understands that the youth we serve don't just need opportunity, they need someone who sees them fully. Today, Allen is helping shape how The Bridge Foundation approaches youth mental health, wellness, and the kind of mentorship that changes lives from the inside out.

Allen believes the next generation deserves to be well AND successful. He shows up to make sure they don't have to choose between the two.
