Florida Shared Housing — Pilot 2026
A Safe Place to Land Before the Next Step
BedBridge provides structured shared housing for independent adults in transition. We work alongside providers, nonprofits, and community programs as a housing resource arm.
What BedBridge Does
We Provide the Housing Bridge
BedBridge creates safe, structured shared housing for adults who are one step away from homelessness, exiting homelessness, transitioning out of systems, or not yet ready for fully independent housing. We provide the bed, home structure, house rules, safety screening, weekly license model, and basic housing operations. Our partners continue providing the services.
The Bed
Shared-room housing with clean, furnished sleeping space.
The Home
Shared common areas, house rules, gender-specific homes, and no overnight guests.
The Bridge
A practical housing step between crisis and long-term stability.
Who We Serve
Built for Adults in Transition
Veterans seeking housing stability
Young adults aging out of foster care, 18+
Independent adults with disabilities who do not need group-home care
Seniors on fixed income who do not need assisted living
Re-entry clients connected to support services
Adults exiting homelessness
Adults at risk of homelessness due to foreclosure, rent increases, job loss, family breakdown, or hardship
Survivors needing provider-led step-down housing after crisis placement
Important Note
BedBridge is for independent adults who can safely live in shared housing. We do not provide personal care, clinical care, treatment, transportation, or supervision.

What BedBridge Is Not
