Navigating health care shouldn’t have to be confusing or overwhelming. That’s why, here at BRIDGES, we offer the Benefits Advisement & Health Care Navigation Program to guide you every step of the way. 🤝

We provide clear, compassionate counseling on Medicaid, Medicare, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Social Security Disability Income (SSDI)—so you never feel lost or alone. 💙

📞 Call us today at (845) 624-1366. We are grateful to serve you!

Description:
The first slide includes the BRIDGES logo in the top left corner of the screen, while the center of the screen reads “Benefits Advisement & Health Care Navigation.” There’s also a white icon on the bottom right of the screen showing a stethoscope encircling little stick figures, representing our support for your health care. The background is a warm-colored blueish-red hue. The next slide has that same colored background with a white icon of someone in a wheelchair. Below that is text explaining our program. The following slide says, “How We Can Help,” with more text underneath including the details. It also an icon of people talking to each other with a text bubble. The fourth is an information slide explaining more that the program has to offer. The final slide shows the BRIDGES logo with contact details on how to get involved on the program today.

Description:
The first slide depicts only the arms & hands of someone holding a clipboard that reads “Through Functional Vision Training and Eye Health Education.” Behind the clipboard, a classroom with a chalkboard and students’ desks fill the room, all coated with a dark blue hue. The second slide has similar imagery behind the text explaining Functional Vision Training. Slide three is also similar as it explains the “Care About Children’s Eyes” program, but it also includes little white icons of safety goggles and a workbook packet. The final slide again has the same background, but it shows only the arms & hands of someone typing on their laptop with the text https://f.mtr.cool/ldmuqinvoq” slithering around their arms.

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal.” 💭

This quote is a powerful reminder that neither our wins nor our losses define us. Success isn’t the end of the road — and failure doesn’t mean we’re finished.

What matters most is the courage to keep going! 🏋️
