Itzy Ruiz

Bridge Kids Director

My Motivation

I love community and the connections with the kids around me! I believe it’s important to have a strong foundation at an early age, and I’m honored that God uses us to reflect His goodness and be an example of love to children.

My Background

I went to school at Northeastern University and graduated with a degree in Social Work. Before working at The Bridge, I worked for Safe Families for Children as the Intake Coordinator and now part time as a Family Coach.

My Spiritual Journey

I was raised Catholic. As a child, my family had us set time aside for prayer and Bible stories. In my adult years, my friend and I spent hours watching the Bible Project together and this led me to faith in Jesus. I was baptized in 2023 after sitting in church and realizing I was ready to keep running towards God.

One More Thing

I was a real estate agent at the age of 19 and left at the age 21 because I didn’t like talking to people. Now, talking to people is my job and I love it!
