Guiding Students Toward Success with Therapy and Support
“We see so much progress in Jacob in the few weeks since he’s started therapy. He’s more social and coming over to express his needs. I’m amazed” —Pre-K Teacher
“I just want you to know how happy I am with the therapists working with Ralph. They really get him and communicate so well with me and the teachers so that we are all part of the process.” —Parent
“Bridge is like my right arm and my right leg. We would not be able to meet the needs of our students without them” —School Director
These are just a glimpse of the feedback we get on a regular basis. At Bridge Linx, our goal is to help every student thrive and meet their goals through our professional and experienced therapy program.
Our Yeshivot do a great job setting curriculums and educating our children. However, classes can be large, demands high, and for many students the expectations are out of reach. Many smart students have specific deficits that can make their learning experience very challenging. In NJ, the options for support and therapy through the education system are very limited. The NJ education system does not provide individual therapy for students. Any student that needs therapy must seek help outside of school at high private costs. This system left most students without the therapy and support they needed as it was too taxing or too expensive on the parents.
Bridgelinx works in partnership with the local yeshivot, servicing the students with Speech, Occupational Therapy and Social Behavior Services. Our therapists are there to guide and collaborate with teachers and administrative staff to ensure carryover and success in the classroom. Our team evaluates, sets goals and provides on-site therapy to students. Through personalized therapy and unwavering encouragement, we help students grow into their brightest selves.
Bridgelinx is unique in its non-profit model, working with many insurances, and offering scholarships for those in need. We are now servicing over 200 students in 4 local yeshivot with the needs and numbers continuing to grow.
