    Description

    Bridges to Housing Stability is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, serving Howard County, MD. Bridges believes that housing is the key to a household’s stability. Whether resolving the issue of homelessness or preventing a household from becoming homeless, our goal goes beyond crisis intervention – our approach and mission focuses on long term housing stability for our target populations.

    One of our flagship programs, Alliance, provides affordable rental housing for households that earn low to moderate incomes. Today the program owns or operates 61 rental homes in the County. Tenant leases are for one year and are renewable.

    When tenants move out of Alliance units the spaces need a little TLC. Unit turnover projects can range from as little as basic spackle and painting to bigger projects like new tiling. Each project is offered to volunteers; volunteers are not required to take on every project.

    We are looking for volunteer project group members with minimal to high levels of relevant experience (handiwork, home maintenance, painting, renovations). Group members can come either as an already formed group wanting to take on projects together, or as an individual looking to be assigned to a group.
