Bridges Middle School

Where in the World is Bridges? 🌎☀️

Throughout the summer, we hope to check in with our Bridges team to see how they’re spending their well-deserved break.

We’re starting with our Executive Director Beven, who is enjoying some beach time with her family. If you read her Spotlight, you know she’s always game for an impromptu trip to the coast!

We hope your summer is filled with opportunities to relax, recharge, and make lasting memories.

Our Executive Director, Beven Byrnes, joined the Kainos Joy Podcast & Plush 4 Purpose Neurodiversity Initiative Podcast to discuss how employers can better support and benefit from neurodivergent talent.
