Bridge Program
The Bridge program aims to support newcomer youth with their education, settlement and integration in Canada, and their transition to adulthood. The SFU Surrey – TD Community Engagement Centre is working with the Surrey School District (SD36) Welcome Centre to offer support and mentorship to English Language Learners, ages 14 through 19 who are struggling to complete high school due to language, cultural, and/or emotional barriers.
The Youth transitions facilitators work with the participants of the program one-on-one to increase reading levels, facilitate group activities, and assist the program facilitator by answering questions from participants and helping them with their assignments
