To honor Freedom Day and give our team space to celebrate, reflect, and engage with their communities, our offices are closed today, June 19th.

We encourage everyone to use this day to listen, learn, and support Black-owned businesses and community organizations.

On June 1, we celebrate the Global Day of Parents, a day established by the United Nations and UNICEF in 2012 to honor parents and caregivers around the world for their lifelong commitment to children and their role in nurturing the next generation.

Whether you are an adoptive parent, a foster parent, a grandparent raising grandchildren, a kinship caregiver stepping up for a niece, nephew, or sibling, or an elder neighbor who mentors, encourages, and loves the children of our communities, thank you! We celebrate you today and every day.

Bridge Meadows' communities are built on the vision that every child has a home and family, every parent has the resources to thrive, and every elder is cherished. ❤️💚💙

We honor and appreciate every parent in our , and communities, and to every person helping children on their journey toward healing and permanency.

This year's theme is "Together for Parents." Check out the United Nations' “Becoming a Parent” video series to discover the parenting journeys of caregivers from around the world: https://youtu.be/4wU9bwLtGxQ?si=e8bFNjZY_PH18uYd

Share this post with a parent or parent figure who deserves to be recognized today!

☀️🌈 It’s a great day to get out and play!

Our community members are kicking off the summer season with Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District for Happiness Hour.

A Friday shout-out to our CEO, Derenda Schubert for her participation in the American Heart Association - Oregon & SW Washington’s powerful panel discussion, "Caretaking: Women, Mothers and the Care Continuum."

Moderated by Diana Cruz, Chief Finance and Strategy Officer at CareOregon, Derenda also joined Peggy Maguire, President and Board Chair of Cambia Health Solutions Foundation for a robust and deeply personal conversation about caretaking as both a universal and public health issue, as it touches every family, community, and generation. The discussion created the space for honest dialogue and meaningful perspectives.

At Bridge Meadows, our intergenerational community model is built on the belief that caring for one another across generations strengthens individuals, families, and neighborhoods. Events like this remind us why that work matters, and why amplifying these conversations at a public health level is so important.

Thank you to the American Heart Association of Oregon & SW Washington for bringing together these voices, and for centering the experiences of women and mothers in the care continuum.
