Beyond the Bridge: A Solution to Homelessness

About The Film

A Bigger Vision Films is an award winning film company - including the Stewart B. McKinney Award - for the tangible impact their films bring to communities nationwide.

The filmmakers traveled 44,000 miles coast to coast, studying the homeless response systems of 12 cities to answer one question: Is there a solution to homelessness where everybody wins?

They not only found that answer to be "yes," they have successfully told the story how every municipality, big or small, can solve its homelessness crisis.

Beyond The Bridge provides a comprehensive and often entertaining analysis of the issue, and leaves audiences inspired and motivated to get to work.

Following the film screening, Bridges to Housing Stability will host a discussion about how solutions could be implemented in the Howard County, MD community.
