OUR MISSION

We create a safe and sober space for teens to recover, and for teens and families to reimagine what is possible for their lives.

We offer a unique ​experience where teens​ and their families can connect with​ peers and build community. Through positive peer support and shared experiences, we help teens and their families begin to heal.

VISION

We empower families to develop identity in recovery by building a safe, joyful community, supportive of their hopes and dreams. The support the families and teens receive allow them to reimagine what's possible in their lives.

OUR WHY

The youth addiction crisis is devastating our communities, yet Washington has just three adolescent residential treatment facilities—leaving families without support post treatment. Bridges fills this critical gap, providing a 12-month addiction recovery support program that exceeds typical 2-4 month options.
