Bridges of Support Vision

Bridges of Support will help promote opportunities for young adults 18 years and older with developmental and intellectual differences by creating opportunities for success by helping families and individuals with disability transition to adulthood and enhance growth and development by providing individualized services in an effort to achieve goals in the area of Postsecondary Education/Vocational Training, Employability Preparedness, Independent living, Self-Advocacy/Peer Mentoring and Community involvement /Resources. During the transition to adulthood, increasing maturity comes with expectations that one
will take responsibility for oneself, make independent decisions, and become
self-sufficient, but for young adults and their families living with disabilities, transition can be very challenging. Bridges of support want to help provide support for the purpose of providing a safe passage over any obstacle to help young adults with development and intellectual differences
reach their full potential.
