Building Bridges of Asheville

Building Bridges of Asheville offers nine week seminars on race relations and community building.  Sessions are designed around the small group experience.  We have successfully completed many Building Bridges series.  Each series is special because the curriculum continues to evolve in response to suggestions made in previous series.  A grant from the Community Foundation of Western North Carolina in 1995 helped tailor the curriculum especially for the Asheville area. Continuing education credits are awarded for all of our programs.
