Bridgeways

Manufacturing shop/employment program: the Bridgeways manufacturing/production shop provides jobs to clients facing obstacles to employment. Client employees hold an array of positions in the shop, working in an as9100 and iso 9001-certified environment (aerospace industry quality management system and standard), producing high-quality products for customers.the shop is a great fit for people who need or desire a level of on-the-job accommodation due to challenges created by disabilities associated with mental illness. Beyond just a paycheck, employment promotes a sense of accomplishment, hope, self-respect and valid participation in the workforce and community. It removes people from isolation and builds connections with others. And when a person is working, the drive to take care of their illness is even greater. There is motivation to work with their clinician to meet recovery goals and succeed with therapy.

Clinical services and supports: supported employment - a partnership with various community providers/employers and agencies to assist clients who are mentally ill to find and retain employment by pairing up each participant with a supported employment specialist who works on job development in the community, building business relationships, assessing clients for barriers and strengths to employment and seeing them through the interviewing process up until a job is acquired and at times beyond that point.mental health court/community justice alternative - the therapeutic alternative court programs are a partnership between various entities. The programs assess eligible clients and monitor court participation with the goal of reducing recidivism by mentally ill offenders with misdemeanor charges.
