Our Impact

Bridges Out of Poverty works across the many sectors of a community to create a common language and understanding. When businesses, schools, social services, healthcare providers, law enforcement, higher education, and churches work together with people from poverty, communities thrive. Reducing the social costs of poverty, strengthening the workforce, and building a more prosperous and sustainable community are goals on which most communities agree.

The Bridges Out of Poverty community support program provides concepts and workshops to help employers, community organizations, social service agencies, and individuals address and reduce poverty in a comprehensive way. Bridges brings people from all sectors and economic classes together to improve job retention rates, build resources, improve outcomes, and support those who are moving out of poverty.



The Getting Ahead program is the engine behind the Bridges Out Of Poverty model.
