Bridges connects young people who are involved in their faith communities, and brings them together to consider how their faith calls them to action in interfaith dialogue. The themes for Bridges focus on perspective, identity, and action. Youth focus on the theme of perspective, building a community of care and intention with one another. Youth develop skills in non-violent communication, active listening, and religious literacy. The communication style employed in Bridges is an adaptation of Marshall Rosenberg’s model, inviting participants to consider their observations, feelings, needs, and requests with one another in dialogue. One of the primary features within Bridges, is to cultivate a community of care. In this safe, trusting, and brave space, participants are empowered to participate in vulnerable conversations and to try new experiences. This is all forged within a foundation of interfaith friendship, and—as all Mosaic activities—is challenge by choice. Additionally, participants build skills in perspectival awareness through experiential activities. These activities invite young people to shift their viewpoint in situations to consider how others may respond and react, specifically from unique intersectional identities. Bridges partners consistently articulate a need to connect youth desire to act for social change with their self-articulated faith identities. Here, Bridges programming responds through both experiential programming through intentional reflection and dialogue. The Bridges program is particularly designed to respond to three demonstrated needs that have emerged throughout the time that Mosaic has been operative. First, Mosaic responds to the articulated desire to connect young people’s desire to act for social change with their self-articulated faith identity. Following participation in the Bridges program in 2020-21, 90% of young people agreed or strongly agreed that they understand how their faith calls them to work for social justice, compared to 68% prior to participation in the program. Second, Boston is an incredibly diverse city, with a richness of religious identities and resources. And yet, there is a lack of interfaith space and programming that is neighborhood-specific to bring together young people to share this central part of themselves with their peers, and learn about their friends. Participants in Bridges regularly recognize one another from the halls at school or the neighborhood pick-up basketball game. They have not yet been given the structure and opportunity to meet one another at this level of interfaith dialogue; and with these resources, the young people Mosaic works with thrive
