Making a Difference
BRIDGES is a nonprofit society providing social outreach for
mental health support and the promotion of mental wellness.
BRIDGES IS IN A NEW LOCATION
We've moved to 250 Hardisty Ave.
Come and see us in our new location on Hardisty Avenue! We appreciate your patience with us while we go through a transition period. We thank our clients and volunteers who helped so much during the move! Unfortunately, Telus has been unable to transfer our phone and internet services smoothly and we are currently without both. Please contact us by emailing info@bridgeshinton.org until August 15.
Carefree Friday BBQs are Back!
Another BBQ Season ends..
July was a whirlwind, wasn't it? Our BBQs held July 8, 15, 22, and 29 were well attended. Thank you all for coming and thank you for bearing with our various states of "packed up" through the month as we prepared for our move. We are excited about next July's Carefree Friday BBQs being held at Kinsmen Park directly beside BRIDGES new hall!
BRIDGES is grateful for our sponsors, Freson Bros. Hinton, Remax 2000 Realty Hinton, Griffiths Ford, Hinton Optometry Clinic, A&W Hinton and M&M Food Market.
BUILDING COMMUNITY MENTAL WELLNESS TOGETHER
BRIDGES collaborates with local businesses, social groups, government organizations and other local non profit service providers in our community to promote mental wellness in Hinton. We are a contributing member of our local Rural Mental Health Network, working to leverage existing community connections and resources and collaborate in the best ways that maximize wrap-around supports for all who need them. We provide ways for everyone to participate in our work and programs, whether they are joining our activities, volunteering their time, donating money or sponsoring our events.
Thank you. We are so very grateful to all of the generous individuals, companies and organizations who participate in our work, and we look forward to continuing to work together for mental wellness!
