Eligibility

Bridge of Hope helps families, primarily those led by single mothers, who are struggling with their finances and are facing homelessness.

Through an approximately 12–18-month program with Bridge of Hope, you will work with a case manager and be connected to a Neighborhood of Support to help your family secure safe and sustainable housing that meets your needs. To help you on your way, Bridge of Hope will also provide temporary rental assistance.

We currently do not have openings in the program and are working through our wait list on a first come, first serve basis. If you would like to begin the application process, please complete an inquiry form by clicking the link below and entering your information. You will be contacted by a case manager regarding the application process.

Please note, we are not an emergency shelter and cannot offer emergency financial or rental assistance. Resources for community shelters and agencies can be found below.

If Bridge of Hope is not available in your area or doesn’t meet your current needs, please reach out to your local 211 helpline to explore other support options or visit https://211virginia.org. Available 24/7, 365 days/year.

If you have questions about the program, feel free to contact us.
