While the recession is over technically, families continue to experience its negative and lingering effects. In its 2012 triennial survey, Wilder Research counted 5100 children under the age of 17 on their own in Minnesota and an additional 13,900 children with their homeless parents. The Bridge for Youth is a vital safety net for children and their families. Teenagers turn to The Bridge when life at home is difficult, unsafe, or unstable. Parents, struggling with economic challenges, mental health issues, and family trauma turn to The Bridge too when life is overwhelming and parenting just isn’t working. As an agency, we’ve been challenged to meet an increased need for services and to do so with fewer dollars. Thus, in 2012 we convened a cross section of stakeholders including youth, families, staff, board members, neighbors, and external partners. We listened, debated, and worked hard to chart a new course for our agency. The result was a new strategic plan, approved by the Board of Directors in July, 2012. The plan re-focuses our efforts on what we do best: serving at-risk children 17 and under and their families. It also strengthens our commitment to working with LGBTQ youth and sexually exploited youth. This plan will guide our work over the next several years. As we look ahead, excitement builds for our “Youth in Crisis Technology Project. In 2014, new technology will improve our efficiency and our service offerings to youth. Lastly, thank you for your ongoing support. With your help, we will continue to bring passion, energy, and commitment to our work, assisting Minnesota children and families in need. Sincerely, Board Chair Executive Director 2 2013 Program Summary Core Programs • 24-hour Crisis Hotline • Shelter for youth ages 10-17. • Emergency Shelter • Transitions for 16 & 17 year old youth Facilities include single and double rooms with shared bath, shared kitchen and living space, laundry, computer lab, private counseling rooms, workout area, free store, patio and garden, basketball court, on-site health clinic, and free internet access.

At 14, she moved for the fifth time to a new home with her Mom and two sisters. This time, her family doubled up with another family as a way to make ends meet. But, close quarter living increased tension in the small household. JoJo’s Mom struggled with alcohol addiction. Frequent outbursts exacerbated the growing conflict between Mom and her teenage daughter. One evening, after an intense argument, JoJo left home. She stayed at a friend’s for a few nights but eventually wore out her welcome. With no place else to go, and still unwilling to return home, JoJo found herself on the streets. Police brought her to The Bridge. JoJo was relieved to have a safe place to stay for the night. Initially guarded, JoJo warmed up to counselors who offered food, clean clothes, and a sincere interest in her well-being. Like many other youth, JoJo stayed at The Bridge for three days. Staff contacted her Mom, encouraging the two to re-connect in a family meeting. In a safe environment, JoJo opened up emotionally, describing her daily challenges. Over the next four years, JoJo returned to The Bridge frequently. With help from Case Managers at The Bridge, JoJo was able to move in with her Grandmother, a situation offering greater stability. 14 762 603 29% 2.8 is the average age of youth seeking help unduplicated youth served in the shelter required an overnight stay returned to The Bridge for additional services days average length of stay 4 Transitions Program The Transitions Program launched as a pilot program in January, 2013 replacing the agency’s Transitional Living Program for youth ages 16-21. Focused exclusively on 16 and 17-year old youth, Transitions provides on-site housing for up to 18 months coupled with case management, counseling, and developmentally appropriate programming. Case managers assist youth in setting and achieving goals around family relations, housing, education, employment, and life skills. Youth work towards reunifying with family or transitioning to a safe alternative. Trenton was homeless when he entered the Transitions Program at The Bridge for Youth. Throughout most of his life, he moved in and out of shelters with his family. By the time he reached 17, Trenton was on his own. At first, Trenton found it difficult to adjust to living in a structured environment. Participating in chores, eating meals at a scheduled time, and having a curfew were foreign to Trenton. And, controlling his anger was a big challenge. Yet Trenton knew no other way to handle stress in his life. With the help of a support team at The Bridge (a Case Manager, a therapist, and The Transitions Program houses youth in comfortable dormitory style rooms. other youth in the program), Trenton slowly began to adapt to a new life. In just a few months, Trenton began to thrive. He participated in the Work Ambassadors program, working as an apprentice to the Facilities Manager at The Bridge. Paired with an adult male role model, Trenton developed new skills in maintenance, cleaning, and repair. As his confidence and his skills grew, Trenton’s behavior changed too. Trenton stayed off the streets, preferring to come home from school and get right to his job. He never missed a shift and he became a role model for other youth in the program. Over time, Trenton saved all the money he earned in the Work Ambassadors program. With work experience and a good reference, Trevor secured employment with a youth organization where he continues to further his skills. With an income, Trevor was able to secure a studio apartment at Nicollet Square, a non-profit providing supportive housing for homeless youth up to age 21. 5 17 78% 86% 82% 45 youth served at exit: were stably housed were enrolled in school were from Hennepin county days average length of stay Counseling & Clinical Services Counseling at The Bridge keeps families intact. As a 44-year old single Dad, Jim has his share of challenges with his 16 year old son. Jim’s biggest fear is that Darrell will wind up in jail. And, a criminal record will set Darrell back for life. Last year Darrell began hanging out with new friends. The group seemed to get into a lot of trouble. Jim tried curfews, threats, even bribes to get Darrell to find a new group of friends, but nothing worked. The relationship between father and son became strained and the last two arguments turned physical. “We couldn’t continue like this,” said Jim. “Getting physical was not solving anything. I was out of options on how to deal with my son.” A friend told Jim about The Bridge. Desperate, Jim called the crisis hotline and scheduled a counseling appointment for the next day. With tension at an all time high, Jim and Darrell met separately with a counselor. Each was able to express frustration and realize some of the tension was related to other issues. Both returned for counseling individually and as a family unit. Jim credits The Bridge for teaching him new parenting strategies and finding ways to support his son’s need for independence. Darrell, was able to appreciate his father’s concern and now tries to express his anger differently. They still experience ups and downs but as Jim said, “The main thing is that The Bridge brought us back together .” 921 466 268 187 counseling sessions family counseling sessions during & after shelter stay individual sessions walk-in sessions 6 Outreach & Aftercare Connections Building and maintaining connections with youth is an ongoing process at The Bridge. The Outreach Team connects with youth and service providers at other shelters, schools, libraries, and youth events. A key program goal is building awareness in the community about the continuum of services offered at The Bridge. Each week staff, volunteers, and interns facilitate drop-in support groups for adolescent boys, girls, and LGBTQ youth.These groups support youth currently in the Emergency Shelter and Transitions Program, former clients, and anyone who wants to drop in. 7 At The Bridge for Youth, weekly art therapy gives teens an outlet for creative expression. 407 103 409 youth attended support groups received advocacy and transportation to juvenile court received physical health assessments Volunteering at The Bridge for Youth Teresa Morris has logged more volunteer hours than anyone else at The Bridge. In the process, she’s learned a lot about herself and launched a new career. As a teacher for over twelve years, Morris loved working with teenagers. However, at 56 she wanted to try something different. After some soul-searching, Morris enrolled in a Master’s program in Marriage and Family Therapy. When she needed to fulfill a requirement for on-the –job work experience, Morris turned to The Bridge for Youth. Teresa Morris, volunteer at The Bridge With a highly regarded intern program training over 100 interns a year, The Bridge offered Morris Intern & Education Partners List solid training and practical experience. Adler Graduate School Argosy University Augsburg College Bethel College Capella University Inver Hills Community College Luther College Mankato State University Metropolitan State University Minneapolis Community and Technical College North Central University Scranton University St. Catherine University St. Mary’s University of Minnesota University of Minnesota University of Minnesota, Crookston University of St Thomas “Working in a crisis center is different than working in private practice or a clinic,” said Morris. “Here you work with families when they are at their most vulnerable. It’s very challenging work.” Supported in her work by Shirley Carter, The Bridge for Youth’s Volunteer, Intern, and Training Manager, Morris has volunteered over 2500 hours. “As an older student, it was important to find a place where I’d feel comfortable working. Shirley put me right at ease and challenged me in new ways.” Teresa recently earned her license as a Marriage and Family Therapist. She continues to volunteer at The Bridge. $383,070 Economic value of volunteer hours 8 Client Demographics Demographic Information FY 2013 Other Asian 2% Hispanic 4% 2% Native American 4% Bi-racial 16% Bi-racial 16% Black 50% White 22% Race Ages 10-12 2% Black 50% Age 18 1% White 22% Ages 12-14 30% Age Ages 10-12 2% Ages 15-17 67% Age 18 1% Sexual Orientation Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth are disproportionately represented in the homeless Ages 12-14 30% population.
