Day Shelter Services

We are devoted to providing the best possible level of service to each Guest who walks through our gate. Our day shelter services are available to anyone 18+ and are free of charge.

Night Shelter Services

We are devoted to providing the best possible level of service to each Guest who walks through our gate. On-site night emergency shelter is available for high demand guests. If the on-site shelter is at capacity (249), off-site shelter referrals and placements are provided in collaboration with housing and shelter partners.

The Bridge has contributed to the revitalization of downtown and its surrounding neighborhoods by serving as a magnet for the homeless community that otherwise would be roaming the streets and by empowering adults with the tools necessary for their homeless recovery and self-sufficiency.

Night
Shelter

Our Night Shelter ensures that individuals have a secure and comfortable place to rest after a long day. Open every evening, the Night Shelter offers overnight accommodations for those in need of a stable environment. Guests receive meals, have access to hygiene services, and are offered a sense of community as they begin their journey toward long-term recovery. Our goal is to provide not just a bed, but the hope and resources necessary to transition to stable housing.

Care
Management

At the heart of our approach is Care Management—a personalized service that supports individuals in their journey out of homelessness. Each guest is paired with a Care Manager, a compassionate advocate who helps navigate the complexities of healthcare, housing, and employment. Our Care Managers work closely with guests to develop customized recovery plans, connect them to critical services, and offer continuous support throughout their path to self-sufficiency.
