Mission & Core Values
The foundation of everything we do involves creating greater possibility and opportunity for our students.
Our Dream
The mission of Bridge the Gap is to provide comprehensive educational, social and emotional resources to underserved students in Marin County. Our goal is to ensure that all students graduate high school and achieve their greatest potential through college completion or other pathways to economic sustainability and independence.
Our vision is for all students to achieve their greatest potential with equitable access, opportunities, and choice.
Research continues to demonstrate that the most powerful way for under-resourced and first-generation students to achieve a lifetime of increased opportunity and earnings is through higher education. It can be a game changer.
We believe that education strengthens and gives voice to our most marginalized communities.
Racial equity for students in Marin will be achieved when race and ethnicity no longer predict the outcome of a young person’s educational future. As a Marin Promise Partner, Bridge the Gap commits to identify and dismantle racial inequities, and to provide equity-based supports, so that our most vulnerable children can achieve their full potential.
We Believe
Our core values and educational philosophy center around the belief that every child deserves the chance to graduate from college.
