VACANCY REPORT- APRIL 2026
Welcome to Bridge to Care, proudly serving families across the Province of Alberta, Canada, where compassion meets excellence in supporting children with special needs and their families. We are dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and empowering environment where every child is valued, supported, and given the opportunity to thrive.
​
Our services are thoughtfully designed to meet the diverse and evolving needs of families throughout Alberta. We offer flexible respite care options, including hourly support and 24-hour care, ensuring that caregivers receive the rest and assistance they need while their children are cared for by trained and compassionate professionals.
In addition to respite care, we provide comprehensive therapeutic programs tailored to each child’s unique developmental, behavioral, and emotional needs. Our approach focuses on enhancing independence, building life skills, and promoting overall well-being through structured, individualized support.
For families requiring more intensive assistance, we also offer out-of-home placement services in a safe, structured, and family-like setting. These environments are designed to provide stability, continuity of care, and meaningful engagement for each child.
At Bridge to Care, we believe that every family across Alberta deserves access to quality respite care and strong community support systems. We are committed to walking alongside families—offering guidance, encouragement, and practical solutions—so they never feel alone in their journey.
Together, we strive to transform disability services in Alberta by embracing a person-centered approach that recognizes and celebrates the unique strengths, abilities, and challenges of every child we serve. Our mission is not only to provide care, but to build confidence, foster inclusion, and create lasting positive impact in the lives of children and their families.
