Empowering individuals and families to get out of poverty and thrive!
IN ROME AND FLOYD COUNTY
Our Impact
Bridges Out of Poverty helps communities create a shared language and understanding around poverty. When businesses, schools, healthcare providers, law enforcement, churches, and social services work hand-in-hand with individuals experiencing poverty, communities become stronger and more sustainable.
Our goal is to reduce the social costs of poverty, strengthen the workforce, and build a more prosperous future.
Through workshops and training, the Bridges community support program equips employers, organizations, service providers, and individuals with practical tools to address poverty in a comprehensive way. By bringing people from all sectors and economic backgrounds together, Bridges improves job retention, builds resources, supports families, and creates lasting change.
