Testimonials
BHCA’s Summer Youth Employment and Learning Program has equipped me with a range of valuable soft skills and opened numerous opportunities for me as a young professional. I’m grateful to now work with BHCA, where I can continue developing these skills in a supportive environment while contributing to our community.
Anye’ Grant
BHCA helped me to be more creative and outspoken and to learn what Community means. This program helps underserved youth overcome and succeed. Thanks to them I’m in my second year at UCONN majoring in Allied Health Sciences.
Calibe Simpson
The BHCA After-school program at Weaver High School has given me a profound sense of community among our families here in Hartford. Having the opportunity to work alongside BHCA has allowed me to support the community and invest in our youth, which is crucial for the future of Hartford. I am truly grateful for the chance to learn that community fellowship is a valuable gift.
