Connecting Individuals with Disabilities to their Communities
Individuals with disabilities and their families work with Community Bridges to manage their unique challenges, maneuver the obstacles, and thrive in their communities.
For over 35 years, Community Bridges has provided the tools and support to individuals with disabilities so they become welcomed and active contributors to our community, making it a better place for everyone!
Our individual approach is focused on creating the best life possible for every individual we serve. From early childhood through all phases of life, people experiencing developmental disabilities or injuries have an advocate and caring partner to help them utilize their skills and talents to live a productive and rewarding life that they choose for themselves.

Enhanced Family Care
This program is based on a “shared life” approach to providing quality care and supports to people experiencing disabilities. In turn, the caregiver welcomes the individual as an active member of his or her network of family, friends, and acquaintances. Shared Living is a very effective support system that gives your family member the opportunity to learn life skills, develop greater self-esteem, and live a more interdependent life within his or her community. We believe that inclusion and enduring relationships are vital to a full and fulfilling life.
Home Care Providers participate actively in all individual-centered conferences and team meetings, and implement objectives agreed upon at those meetings. Each Home Care Provider is screened, interviewed by the individual and/or guardian and program manager, and selected based on compatibility. All Home Care Providers are fully trained and assisted by a manager and Agency Nurse Trainer to help shape and follow through on all of the individual’s needs, as well as all state and federal regulations.
