So Where Does Bridges for Life Fit In?

Bridges for Life utilizes a hybrid case management model (Brokerage/Generalist, Strengths Perspective, and Assertive Community Treatment).

 

Simply put, our level of interaction depends on the individual and the situation. Let us explain...

All-Access Model

For any family referred to us or who walks in our doors or contacts us, this level of service is available. Our community hosts many providers suited to help strengthen families in a variety of ways; however, many of these providers are not operating at their capacity and may not be well-known among some community members. 


We have valuable connections and comprehensive lists of resources by categories of need:


1) Education

2) Physical Health

3) Mental Health

4) Personal Finance

5) Interpersonal/Social Skills

Outreach Efforts

In addition to our general community availability, we have specific Outreach programs known as "Connect Points" such as Dinner at the Lamp that are designed to connect with those in need.


Here, individuals receive a more intensive and personalized approach. outreach workers invest significant time with those needing extra support to move forward. 


Trained Staff

A vital component of these interactions center on the competence and education of our staff. Our team is diverse, passionate, and dedicated with backgrounds in:


- social work

- lived experience (homelessness and/or addiction) 

- management

- family and ministry 


To assist our team in providing the best support possible, workers are trained in areas such as:


1) Personal and Professional Rapport building

2) Assessment Process*

3) Family Goal Setting

4) MI (Motivational Interviewing)*

5) Safety Planning*

6) Family Strengthening Interventions
