'Bridging the Gap'
in Boston >>
W
ith an Olympic–sized pool, a multilevel fitness area, a gym, and even
a rock wall, Boston's Ray & Joan Kroc
Corps Community Center is truly an
amazing place.
The Salvation Army's Bridging the
Gap (BTG) youth diversion program that
meets at the center each week is blessed
to have access to these resources.
Jovan Zuniga, program director for the
Boston BTG, says the center is helping
robert mitchell
to realize Joan Kroc's vision of "a safe
gathering place, a place with facilities
and trained professionals to nurture children's social skills, arts appreciation, and
athletic potential."
"Through BTG's extensive use of the
Kroc Center facilities, we have provided
hundreds of court–involved youth a safe
haven in which they can learn necessary
life skills, have a place to exert energy,
and cultivate their talents," Zuniga says.
