The Bridge Engagement Centre (The Bridge) is led by Dr. Smita Pakhale. The Bridge is a community research centre, where Ottawa’s most vulnerable residents co-create sustainable solutions to overcome poverty, isolation, homelessness and substance use by challenging the status quo. 

Patient-Engagement: Members participate in every phase of Bridge projects, including participation in the Centre’s governance body 

Empowerment: We are a strong community that empowers those who are homeless or at- risk for homelessness, of Indigenous origin and low income 

Health Inside and Out: In addition to reducing or quitting tobacco use, participants reduced all other drug use (including opioids like fentanyl) and improved their general socioeconomic status 

Harm Reduction: Our holistic approach may prevent diseases like cancer, heart attack and strokes while creating a vibrant, productive and healthy populations, with no one left behind 

Global Support for The Bridge: Our ‘Whole-Person’ comprehensive approach is being acclaimed in San Francisco, Chicago, Omaha, and Toronto (CAMH & PARC), which are all partnering with us to implement our model for their homeless and low-income populations
