About The Bridge for Youth

The Bridge for Youth centers youth voice, justice, and equity in all we do and empowers youth experiencing homelessness through safe shelter, basic needs, and healthy relationships. Our vision is a community where all youth feel safe, accepted, and supported. Since 1970, The Bridge has been a safe place for ALL youth, providing safety and stability for over 50,000 youth.

We invite you to amplify youth voice, elevate the resiliency of youth, and inspire action in our community.
