Hello!
Do you ever feel like you’ve reached a roadblock?
Do you need a second opinion about your
educational or employment future?
We’re here to listen and help. Through a one-on-
one case management approach, our friendly
and knowledgeable staff are able to accurately
and quickly assess immediate educational and
employment skills development needs so that
you are able to get on the path of success. At The
Bridge, we are not just here for your short-term
needs, but here for your long term well-being.
The Bridge Program can be accessed through
your local neighbourhood house.

Do you want to contribute to your community?
There are two ways you can help!
You can demonstrate your community spirit by
helping to give a warm welcome to a newcomer
to BC. As a friend and mentor, you will help
connect newcomers with key resources in the
community and practice conversational English.
You can also help by teaching English, offering
pre-employment skills coaching or conducting
computer workshops.
After all, integration is a two-way street.
We know that when you first come to a new
country, it can be challenging. We’re here to help.
Here are some of the services that we offer:
