future charitable alignment.
Bridge Over Troubled Water is Boston’s premier organization dedicated to transforming the lives of runaway, homeless, and high-risk youth through safe, supportive, and encouraging relationships and effective and innovative services that guide them towards self-sufficiency. Starting in 1960, Bridge has since evolved into a national model and program incubator for youth development services which are effective in helping the most troubled and vulnerable homeless youth to turn their lives around.
