Bridge Meadows

Description

• Bridge Meadows is a unique multi-generational community located in the Portsmouth neighborhood of North Portland where adoptive parents, foster children, and elders - those over 55 - find a true home built with love and the shared vision of a better tomorrow.Bridge Meadows is a community designed to change the face of the foster care system. Every day, in the state of Oregon, over 8,000 children are in the system awaiting adoption or a reunion with their birth parents. For some of those children, that day will never come.Parents and children who live at Bridge Meadows are provided a lifeline of support throughout their journey of adoption. We offer on-site counseling, cultural activities, workshops, support groups and recreation as a resource for parents and healing for children. Most importantly though, families are surrounded by elders who volunteer their time and energy on behalf of the community. Caring connections between families and grandparents are made every day.Elders at Bridge Meadows act as surrogate grandparents and mentors to the children and families who live here. Our elders volunteer 100 hours per quarter, or an average of 8 hours per week, teaching arts and crafts, giving music lessons and taking the kids to the park during the summer. Elders at Bridge Meadows are involved and active and experience meaning and purpose in their lives.
