DPS partners with Bessie's Hope in DPS CareerConnect and in Bessie's Hope School-to-Career Work Force Development Initiative. First, the high school students participate in the Youth and Elders Program.  Students visited Briarwood Health Care Center and Cedars Health Care Center.

Get your school or youth group involved with relationship-building visits with the elders. The youth gain compassion, respect and empathy--a life-long benefit.   

Become a Bridge Builder with a monthly donation of any amount and provide Bessie's Hope with continuous, predictable income to support work that builds bridges of compassion, empathy, and respect.  Donate in honor of a loved one, so that you and they will receive a thank you from youth and elders.
