THE
BRIDGES SOCIETY
Supporting
Those with Mental Health Needs
BRIDGES is a charitable, non-profit society founded in 1996 by a
small group of concerned parents and Alberta Mental Health staff to address the
lack of support for adults with mental illness. The society has evolved over
the years and has offered different kinds of services (such as housing and
employment support for people with mental health related disabilities.)
The BRIDGES Society currently provides support, community-based programming, information and understanding to everyone looking to connect with community for the support of their mental health and wellness. We are a mental health support and promotion agency. Our drop-in centre offers social outreach & referrals, peer supports, social art and recreation activities, events and a community meal program. BRIDGES celebrates diversity and welcomes all who wish to participate.
