| BRIDGES provides a complete scope of services for domestic violence victims. We go to the scene of the assault with the police department, provide shelter, case management, referrals and advocacy, outreach, prevention education, child advocacy and court advocacy. As our county grows the demand for services have increased. We have experienced a growth in the need for services from clients that speak many languages. We have contracted with Language Line to meet our multi-cultural language needs. |
