A Bridge to Independence is an accredited Supports Coordination Organization that locates, coordinates and monitors the delivery of home and community-based services for individuals in Pennsylvania with physical and intellectual disabilities.
At Bridge, you’re like family. Let our case management services act as your personal guide through what can be an overwhelming list of county resources.
From adult autism services to aging and disability services, Bridge provides supports/service coordination for many individuals statewide.
We help families examine their needs, look at which services they qualify for, and coordinate
with county agencies to ensure they can provide adequate support for all involved.
Our supports/service coordinators each average 15-30 years of experience. After seeking resources for their own families, our founders formed Bridge to better serve others like them in the community.
At Bridge, you're not a category, nor a number. Every individual is unique, and our thoughtful, person-first approach sees to it your needs are met. It's personal to us because it's personal to you.
Bridge supports/service coordinators have great relationships with agencies where we live and work. Our roots in those counties allow us to easily connect you with county-specific resources.
