BRIDGES support a community-networking concept that coordinates services; reduces duplication of efforts; engages residents; and builds partnerships among businesses, nonprofits, municipalities, and civic and religious groups.
The 10 BRIDGES locations are run by local nonprofit organizations (Children's Home Society and Housing Partnership Inc., in collaboration with St. John's Missionary Baptist Church, and the Lake Worth Resident Planning Group) that have experience in community engagement and long-standing relationships within their neighborhoods and beyond. While each BRIDGES is tailored to its community's needs, all aim to help parents raise their children to behealthy, safe and strong.
