Bridge to Home
Recovery in Housing
Bridge to Home by Accessible Housing
The Bridge to Home program is a program that focuses on recovery in housing.
Over the course of the year, 90 individuals were served in the program.
We work with individuals that have limited mobility and are chronically homeless while following these principles:
- Immediate access to suitable housing
- Choice and self-determination
- Recovery orientation
- Individualized and client-driven supports
- Social and Community integration
We move people who experience homelessness into independent and permanent housing as quickly as possible, and then provide them with additional services and supports as needed. This includes rental subsidies and case management, with the focus of meaningful community engagement and supportive relationships.
Accessible Housing’s Bridge to Home Program is funded by the Calgary Homeless Foundation
