Note about Religion:

The Be the Bridge curriculum is one that is based in a Christian world-view.  There are bible verses used in the curriculum.  The Christian perspective is not something that will be emphasized in ASA’s facilitation of the group.  However, we want you to be aware of this component of the curriculum when registering.
