The Bridge Shelter

The Bridge Shelter Provide seasonal emergency shelter, and other support services from October 6th through April 30th. We have helped them find housing.

Our mission is to promote independence and self-sufficiency for adult men and women in Montezuma County by providing seasonal emergency shelter, informal case management, job training and employment opportunities. We envision a community where adult men and women can access emergency shelter and support services in a way that honor individual dignity and encourage self-sufficiency. Over the years,

the Bridge Shelter has helped many folks become more sustainable and lead more self-sufficient lives. We have helped individuals enter substance treatment programs, find jobs or find family. We have helped connect our friends to the supportive services that enable them to remain in housing. In short: We help save lives!
