Overview.
In the summer of 2022, the 7uice Foundation hosted its Bridge Program over three days in Berkeley, California. Before joining the Celtics, Jaylen Brown played one season at the University of California, Berkeley where he explored his wide-ranging interests in education, finance, science, tech, and social justice issues.
Returning to the city where he started his educational and leadership development, Jaylen hosted the 2022 Bridge Program at the Berkeley Residence Inn with a focus on activism and emotional literacy.
