Quote
Bridges to Change helped with giving me direction directly out of jail and supported the whole journey back into early recovery. Without the help of mentors, peers, counselors, and the rest of the BTC staff I would’ve been totally lost, would’ve had zero structure, and would’ve given up on myself. I didn’t have to, the pathway that was paved for me on arrival.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Bridges to Change recognizes and fosters cultural diversity and respect throughout our organization and the communities we serve. Our vision is that Bridges to Change will be sought out as an organization that truly fosters an atmosphere of cultural equity and that we make every effort to acknowledge, understand and embrace cultural differences.
