BRAID Team

Braid is an intergenerational mentoring program designed to support Bay Area youth who are experiencing life in the foster care system.  Several St Francis parishioners have been taking part in this program since October 2014, by building community around a certain foster child named “T”. Braid mentors work as a team with a facilitator and the guardians of T.  They have given him consistent love and care as they journey through San Francisco on the weekends.
If you are interested in finding opportunities to give your time locally to a middle school-aged child through this program, or if you are interested in sending Cards of Hope to local group homes, please contact the Reverends Christopher Chase and Rebecca Edwards at 415-294-0556.
