The Bridge has been changing lives for over fifty years, from our simple origins as a self-help group to our current status as a nationally recognized nonprofit mental health and housing agency. We offer help and hope to New York City's most vulnerable men and women through a comprehensive array of rehabilitative services, including mental health and substance abuse treatment, housing, vocational training and job placement, healthcare, education and creative art therapy. Our innovative programs give those we serve the opportunity to live more productive and independent lives.
