Finding family everywhere.

At Bridges Homeward, our mission
is one of permanency.

Here, that means every child, teen, and young adult has someone that they can count on to always be there for them: a caring person, a loving adult… a supportive community. In fact, Bridges Homeward has been advocating for children, adults, and families for over 145 years.

Our Family of Services:

Foster Care &
Adoption

We find children and teens committed, loving homes where they can flourish.

Developmental Disabilities Services

We provide training, advocacy, and social opportunities to persons with developmental disabilities and their families.

Family
Stabilization

We work to foster environments where families can thrive.

What’s in a (new) name?

Our staff share their thoughts on our new name and how it represents our efforts to support permanency for all families and to lead positive change in child welfare.

Family Stories

Sometimes, permanency in our work means making sure a child can remain with their biological family; sometimes it means ensuring someone with a developmental disability can live with family instead of moving to an institutional setting; and sometimes it means finding a child in foster care a forever family. See for yourself.
