Who We Are & What We Do
Bryant’s Bridge provides affordable housing for LGBTQ+ youth who have experienced homelessness or are about to experience homelessness related to their LGBTQ+ status and connects them to resources in our supportive community.

Mission
Bryant’s Bridge intends to provide affordable housing and a safe space for LGBTQ+ youth to prevent homelessness and promote growth in the areas of education, employment, health and mental health to develop strength of character and promote healing and independence in a world where societal structures create obstacles and hinder support systems necessary to adequately navigate the transition from youth to adulthood.


Vision
We envision a world where all youth have access to full acceptance, safety, honor and understanding of self, and freedom to develop into the individuals they are meant to be, regardless of societal structures that marginalize and present obstacles to that end.
