What We Do: Bridge 13

There are 12 bridges in the Portland area. Metaphorically speaking Bridge-13 is the final bridge that connects communities. In reality Bridge-13 is a dedicated group of youth who are trained to lead workshops about the issues faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning (LGBTQQ) communities.

The workshops are fun and educational. They can be tailored to fit any number of audiences but its real strength is training schools, counselors, teachers, and social service agencies.
