LCAC’s Bridging the Gap program lives out our more than 45-year motto, “a hand up, not a hand out.” Bridging the Gap provides a variety of services that address literacy across the age spectrum and employment-related issues which prevent immigrant and native-born households from becoming self-sufficient.
