Seis Puentes is a project of Butterfly Community Ministries, which has been serving underserved communities for 20+ years.<\/p>\n

In partnership with various strategic partners, we offer Adult Education classes including GED, WAGE, ESL, basic computer skills, job training, and distance learning. Our Latino outreach includes informational seminars, art workshops, and cultural enrichment opportunities.<\/p>\n
