 Description


The Bridges To Life program utilizes an intensive, 14-week process during which victim volunteers  and

of survival, or may volunteer to co-facilitate an entire project leading a small group through the 14-week 
curriculum.

project.  All BTL volunteers must be able to pass a background check conducted by the Texas Department of Criminal 
Justice (TDCJ), attend TDCJ security training, and attend the 3 
hour BTL training.
