Expatriates have roots in one culture while they are building connections to another in an attempt to bridge the two. Bridging Cultures programs help individuals deepen an understanding of the emotional and intellectual process involved in an international move. They are designed to facilitate adaptation to another culture for members of the whole family.

True adaptation means:

~ having a sense of belonging

~ experiencing personal growth
~ developing cross-cultural awareness
