Bridgette founded BIMA (Believing In Myself Again) Services in 2017 in reaction to the rising homelessness issue facing the Pierce County area. Her nonprofit provides community outreach, resources and a safe haven to individuals and families who have lost their voice and don’t know where to turn by helping them find their voice to be HEARD, Housed, Educated, Assured, Restored & Determined.
Bridgette’s own experience with homelessness 17 years ago combined with her accreditation as a Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor and Social Worker, eventually was her guiding light to start BIMA alongside her husband, Marvin. Her front row seat to sudden upheaval and loss enabled Bridgette with the skills, insight and heart space to be a beacon of hope to others in need. In her spare time Bridgette enjoys cooking, singing and spending time with her family.
