Our History
Community Bridges, Inc. (CBI) was founded in 1982 and we are quickly approaching our thirtieth year of service to the community. CBI was incorporated as the East Valley Alcoholism Council (EVAC), a non-profit agency, for the purpose of providing a comprehensive community chemical dependency network in the East Valley. In 2002 we changed our name to Community Bridges and expanded our mission to assisting homeless, indigent, and working poor men and women from Arizona. Today, we are one of the largest statewide providers offering over 25 programs in 11 cities in Maricopa, Pinal, Gila, Yuma, Navajo, Apache, and Cochise Counties for individuals who are in need of treatment for co-occurring disorders, as well as prevention and education services. CBI provides these services without regard to race, creed, gender, ethnicity, physical limitations, or the individuals’ ability to pay.
