Our Core Beliefs

Our children and families are the center of our work.

The Bridge believes that every family and child has many strengths. Our job is to build on those strengths.

We believe that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity.

The best interests of the children and families we serve guide every aspect of our work. We put forth our very best effort in all that we do.

We are committed to quality, integrity, and a holistic approach to care in a welcoming, nurturing environment. We do not give up easily. We work hard to find a way. We make it happen.

As an organization, the Bridge is committed to being a source of pride for our donors, board of directors, staff, and volunteers.

We value the diversity of our workforce. We expect teamwork and collaboration. We set high standards for ourselves and support each other along the way. We celebrate our successes and learn from our mistakes.

Our culture is grounded in accountability, innovation, excellence, and transparency.

The Bridge is guided by sound business practices and committed to maintaining our fiscal health so we can continue to offer high quality services for generations to come. We support our workforce by offering competitive wages, benefits, and ongoing training.

We strive to hire and retain the best of the best.
