Frequently Asked Questions
How can I find local resources?
This tool allows you to search two different ways! On our home page (simply scroll up), there are 5 options to choose: Youth, Family, Foster Parent, Kinship, Social Worker. Click one of those for resources specific to your role in the system. You can also click the orange “Find Resources” button (or the 🔍 icon on mobile) in the top right corner to get to all of our resources.
I'd like to add a resources to share with others. Where can I learn more about adding resources?
I work for a local public welfare agency. How can I get connected?
We hope you’ll take full advantage of this resource database! You can click “Social Worker” to view resources specifically curated for child welfare professionals, or browse the directory by resource type to find the support you need.
If you know of a high-quality resource that isn’t already included and meets our resource criteria, we encourage you to submit it for consideration. Every resource you share helps build a stronger bridge of support for those impacted by the child welfare system.
We also invite you to join The Bridge Connect —a space created specifically for child welfare professionals to ask questions, share ideas, build community, network with colleagues, and support one another across agencies. To access The Bridge Connect, scroll to the top navigation bar, click “Get Involved,” and then select “Social Workers.” We look forward to connecting with you.
How can I help make The Bridge is Us a success?
The Bridge Is Us is built on the idea that no one person or organization has all the answers—but together, we can create stronger connections for children, youth, families, caregivers, and the professionals who serve them.
The number one way you can help is by sharing trusted resources that meet our resource criteria, suggesting updates when information changes, and helping us ensure this guide remains accurate, relevant, and useful.
If you’re interested in volunteering your time to help review and maintain the resource database, we’d love to hear from you. Please email us at [email protected].

I added a resources a while ago and don't see it listed?
This resource directory is managed by volunteers so it may take longer than expected to add resources once submitted to our organization. It is also possible that the resource was not found to meet our criteria for the directory.
