Our Story

Bridges to Independence has been a beacon of hope in Arlington County, Virginia, since 1985. Originally founded as the Arlington-Alexandria Coalition for the Homeless, the organization has evolved from a modest 20-bed shelter to operating the largest emergency family shelter in the county. In 2015, the rebranding to Bridges to Independence marked a renewed commitment to breaking the cycle of poverty. A significant merger in 2020 further expanded its mission, allowing Bridges to serve over 500 individuals annually, including more than 200 youth.

Impact

Bridges to Independence empowers families to transition from homelessness to stable, independent lives, providing essential services that foster self-sufficiency.
