Serving Southern Indiana
BRIDGES 2 HOPE
Empowering Recovery,
Restoring Independence.
Hope doesn't end at recovery. It begins there.
Recovery is a beginning
The next step
shouldn’t be out of reach.
Bridges 2 Hope helps people rebuild their lives after addiction and take the next steps toward independence. Our Recovery Mobility & Workforce Readiness Program removes two of the biggest barriers to lasting recovery: transportation and employment.
The need in Southern Indiana
Recovery takes courage.
Independence takes support.
In Southern Indiana, people leaving rehab or sober living often have no car, no license, limited public transit, and few job opportunities. Without a way to get to work or build financial stability, many fall back into the cycle of addiction.
Our program
People first. Practical support.
Job Readiness & Placement
Coaching, résumé building, mock interviews, and direct employer connections.
Work Clothing & Shoes
The essentials to start strong and stay employed — from work clothing to the right shoes.
Credit Repair & Financial Coaching
Dispute inaccurate items, build credit, and create sustainable budgets for the next chapter.
Forthcoming
Passenger Vans
Planned group transportation to interviews, job sites, court or probation appointments, and training.
Forthcoming
Electric Bikes & Safety Gear
Planned flexible mobility for short commutes and late shifts, with safety gear.
Looking ahead, with accountability
Our goals. Not results.
Goal · Within 90 days
Employment
Goal: help participants secure employment within 90 days.
Goal · Within six months
Financial stability
Goal: help participants improve or establish credit within six months.
Goal · At six-month follow-up
Recovery milestones
Goal: support participants in maintaining sobriety at six-month follow-up.
These are the outcomes we are working toward. We are building a system to track and report our results as the program grows.
How we measure success
We are starting to track employment, credit progress, and recovery milestones with participant consent and privacy protections. We have not yet tracked outcomes. As our system develops, we will report results publicly and be clear about how they are measured.
Why it matters
A stronger future, together.
For People
Training and support for people leaving rehab and incarceration, connecting them to community through employment.
For Business
People committed to sobriety and work are a large untapped workforce.
For the Economy
Work pays off for everyone; participants become taxpayers who contribute to their communities.
Growing across Indiana
Rooted here. Ready to grow.
Our work begins in Southern Indiana. Our long-term vision is to bring this support to more communities across the state — thoughtfully, with the partners and resources to do it well.
