Providing organization

Bridge of Hope Chester County

Bridge of Hope is a national organization with 19 locations in 11 states (including 5 locations in PA) that engages and networks with religious organizations and social services staff. Their service model presents a three-way partnership among families facing homelessness, church-based Neighboring Volunteers trained to provide practical support and encouragement, and professional staff. Rather than offering short-term solutions, the Bridge of Hope Neighborhood of Support is designed to last 18 to 24 months to give families the time and opportunities necessary for long-term change.
