Bridge House Transitional Living Facility
Bridge House is a large Victorian that serves as an entry home for 5 one- and two-parent families and, if space permits, pregnant women. Bridge House offers structure and stability to families who are ready to assume more responsibility for developing their strengths and life skills. This program's roots are in the belief that each family can attain the skills and information necessary to make the most informed decisions concerning their family's welfare. It is NOT a 24-hour staffed program and relies on the participants for daily maintenance of the home, sharing of chores, and the building of a support system or "extended family" for the well-being of the home.
