Bridges Objectives & Philosophy:

to provide women survivors of any form of abuse with education, training and other supportive programs which will help them break the abusive cycle.
to share information on the needs of women who have a history of abuse with other service organizations and the general public
to help women break the abusive cycle by developing skills which will enable them to move from dependence and reactiveness to independence and self-direction
to increase their employability and overcome barriers to employment
Bridges is committed to designing services and programs reflecting:
a non-judgmental learning environment
an honouring of the individual learning process
the application of adult learning and feminist, person-centered principles to counselling and facilitation
an awareness of boundaries and personal biases

the satisfaction of helping women
a voice that says "no to violence!"
