BUILDING HOPE THROUGH PARTNERSHIP: BRIDGEWAY HONORS THE BRISTOL MYERS SQUIBB FOUNDATION

A shared commitment to health equity, serious mental illness and stronger systems of community care 


At Bridgeway Behavioral Health Services, hope becomes meaningful when it is backed by action: access to care, stable housing, compassionate support and the resources people need to build healthier, more independent lives. 


That is why Bridgeway is proud to honor the Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation at our 2026 Chairperson’s Dinner on October 22. 


The Foundation’s support of Bridgeway represents far more than philanthropy. It reflects a shared belief that people living with serious mental illness deserve access to high-quality care in their own communities and that stronger behavioral health systems can change lives.

 
 

STRONGER TOGETHER: BRIDGEWAY HONORS THE CITY OF SUMMIT AND SUMMIT POLICE DEPARTMENT

Partnership connects people to care, supports recovery and strengthens the communities we serve 


At Bridgeway Behavioral Health Services, we know that strong communities are built through strong partnerships. When behavioral health providers, local government and law enforcement work together, people experiencing mental health challenges, substance use concerns or homelessness have more opportunities to connect with the care and support they need. 


That is why Bridgeway is proud to honor the City of Summit, represented by Mayor Elizabeth Fagan, and the Summit Police Department, represented by Chief of Police Ryan Peters and Sergeant Kathleen Maggiulli, at our 2026 Chairperson’s Dinner on October 22. 


Our growing partnership with Summit demonstrates what can happen when organizations that serve the same community bring their expertise together. 


Bridgeway and the Summit Police Department recently formalized a partnership to support individuals experiencing behavioral health challenges, substance use disorders and homelessness. Through Summit’s Addiction, Coordination & Treatment (A.C.T.) initiative, the partners provide compassionate outreach, follow-up after a crisis and connections to treatment, housing assistance and other community resources. In May, Summit appointed Sgt. Maggiulli to the newly created A.C.T. Officer position, designed to reduce opioid-related harm and connect vulnerable individuals with treatment, recovery services and support.  

 

SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL SUICIDE PREVENTION MONTH

A time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, encourage open conversations, and remind people that support is available. 


By the Bridgeway Zero Suicide Committee 


At Bridgeway, suicide prevention is an organization-wide commitment. The Bridgeway Zero Suicide Committee works to strengthen a culture in which individuals are met with compassion, listened to without judgment, and connected with the support they need. 


Sometimes that support begins long before someone reaches a crisis point. Feelings of dread, hopelessness, anxiety, emotional distress, or simply being overwhelmed by life can be difficult to manage alone. Bridgeway is here to help people navigate those moments, connect with care, and find a path forward. 


Every interaction can make a difference. A conversation, a question, or simply taking the time to listen can help someone feel seen, heard, valued, and less alone. 


Suicide Prevention Month is also an important reminder that we should not be afraid to ask the hard questions. Open and caring conversations about suicide do not increase a person’s risk. They can create an opportunity for connection, support, and hope. 

 
 

ARRIVE TOGETHER TAKES SUICIDE PREVENTION MESSAGE 
TO THE STREETS

On September 21, Bridgeway’s Somerset County ARRIVE Together team joined the Franklin Township Police Department in taking an important message directly into the community during Suicide Prevention Awareness Month (September). 


Nicole Crowley, Director of Somerset ARRIVE Together at Bridgeway Behavioral Health Services, joined Franklin Township Police Department Officer Vito Ross and Captain Vince Wilson, pictured here, along the streets of Somerset to share messages of hope and raise awareness of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. 


The signs they carried offered simple but powerful reminders:  

“You Are Not Alone,” “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay” and “Text. Call. Chat. 988.” 

 
 

BRIDGEWAY AWARDED $3.75 MILLION SAMHSA GRANT TO SUPPORT HUDSON COUNTY

One of only 12 organizations nationwide selected for highly competitive federal funding


Bridgeway Behavioral Health Services has been awarded a $3.75 million, five-year grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) through its Behavioral Health and Community Safety Partnerships program.


Bridgeway is one of only 12 organizations nationwide selected to receive this highly competitive award.


Beginning September 30, 2026, Bridgeway will receive $750,000 annually for five years to lead an initiative in Hudson County focused on reducing the behavioral health impacts of crime, violence and community disorder, strengthening community safety, and improving outcomes for youth, young adults and their families.

 
 

JOIN OUR FREE WEBINAR SUPPORTING THE SUPPORTERS

Bridgeway is proud to spotlight Stephanie R. Simon, LCSW, NCPsyA, CCS, DRCC, Vice President of Strategic Growth, as the featured presenter for an upcoming Woods System of Care Wellness Wednesday webinar.


Supporting the Supporters: Caring for Yourself While Caring for Others


Wednesday, October 7 | 12:00–1:00 p.m. | Virtual


Supporting a loved one, client, colleague or community member through behavioral health challenges can be incredibly meaningful, but it can also take an emotional and physical toll. During this free webinar, Stephanie will explore the importance of caring for ourselves while caring for others, with practical strategies for recognizing our own needs, protecting our well-being and continuing to support others in healthy, sustainable ways.


This is a timely conversation for caregivers, behavioral health professionals, colleagues, family members and anyone who regularly shows up for others.


Please join us and share this opportunity with someone who may benefit.

 

BRIDGEWAY COMMUNITY WELLNESS FAIR BRINGS HEALTH, RESOURCES AND CONNECTION TO HOBOKEN

Bridgeway is excited to bring together more than 20 community organizations and providers for our Community Wellness Fair on Saturday, October 3, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 506 3rd Street in Hoboken.


This free event is designed to make health and wellness resources easy to access while creating a fun, welcoming day for the entire community. Attendees can connect with local organizations, learn about available services, participate in activities and enjoy music and refreshments. Hackensack Meridian Health will also provide free physical health screenings.


The fair is another opportunity for Bridgeway to introduce community members to the support available right in Hoboken. Our 506 3rd Street location is home to the Hudson County Mental Health Urgent Care Center, where anyone who needs immediate behavioral health support can walk in and receive same day care. Whether someone is experiencing a behavioral health concern, looking for help for a loved one or simply wants to learn more about staying well, Bridgeway is here to help.


A special thank you to Catarina Doria, Community Outreach and Engagement Coordinator; Tania Vargas, Director of Hudson BCIS; Stephanie R. Simon, Vice President of Strategic Growth; and the Hoboken team for the tremendous work and collaboration behind this event.


Help us spread the word! Share the Community Wellness Fair with friends, family members, community partners and anyone who could benefit. Everyone is welcome, and admission is free.

Bridgeway’s Supportive Housing teams came together for their annual team-building potluck picnic, giving staff a chance to step away from their busy schedules, enjoy a meal, play games and spend time together.


These teams spend much of their time out in the community helping people with serious mental health needs maintain stable housing, build independent living skills, connect with treatment and other resources, and work toward greater stability and independence. Because staff are often working across different communities and counties, they do not always have many opportunities to connect with one another in person.


Days like this strengthen the relationships behind the work and help build the teamwork that supports the people Bridgeway serves every day.

MCORT - MOBILE OUTREACH SERVICES - YOU MATTER. 
LET US COME TO YOU.

 

When someone's in crisis, the hardest part is often just reaching out. New Jersey's new campaign from the Department of Human Services is trying to make that easier, and it's worth a look.


The message is simple. If you're dealing with mental health distress, a substance use crisis, or thoughts of suicide, call 988. You'll talk with a trained counselor. No judgment, just help.


Sometimes a phone call isn't enough. That's where MCORT comes in. Mobile Crisis Outreach Response Teams can send a mental health professional to you, at no cost, wherever you are. Not an ambulance. Not a police car. Someone trained to sit down with you and help you through it.


Bridgeway is proud to be part of this work through our MCORT team serving Hunterdon, Morris, Somerset, Sussex, and Warren counties in NJ.


The state has also put together a short, animated video that shows how it all works.

Watch the video


Share it with a friend, a family member, a coworker. You never know who needs to hear that they don't have to handle it alone.


Call, text, or chat 988 anytime.

NEW JERSEY'S $16.45 MILLION INVESTMENT STRENGTHENS THE 988 CRISIS CONTINUUM OF CARE

New Jersey Human Services has announced a significant $16.45 million investment to establish Crisis Receiving and Stabilization Centers (CRSCs) as a critical component of the state’s 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline continuum of care.


The funding package includes $14.95 million in state funds and $1.5 million from the federal Mental Health Block Grant, supporting the phased implementation of five regional centers in Bergen, Camden, Essex, Monmouth, and Morris counties.


These centers will provide immediate assessment, stabilization, and treatment for individuals experiencing behavioral health crises, offering a welcoming, community-based alternative to hospital emergency departments or law enforcement intervention.


The CRSCs represent the crucial “somewhere to go” element of a comprehensive crisis system that also includes 988 call centers and mobile crisis response teams. At Bridgeway, our Mobile Crisis Outreach Response Teams (MCORT) are part of that continuum, bringing timely, community-based crisis intervention directly to individuals where they are and helping connect them with the appropriate level of care.


These home-like, non-hospital facilities will provide up to 24 hours of stabilization services, including counseling, peer support, medication management, and warm handoffs to ongoing care, all available 24/7 regardless of insurance status or ability to pay.


This investment strengthens New Jersey’s evolving behavioral health crisis system and complements the work Bridgeway and other community-based providers are already doing across the state. Together, 988, mobile crisis response and crisis stabilization centers can help reduce reliance on emergency rooms, ease pressure on law enforcement and, most importantly, ensure that every New Jerseyan experiencing a mental health crisis has access to the right care, in the right setting, at the right time.

 

THRIFTING WITH HEART: ISH CREATES A SPECIAL SHOPPING EXPERIENCE

A little creativity, a lot of teamwork and plenty of great finds came together for a special thrifting event hosted by Bridgeway’s Intensive Supportive Housing (ISH) team.


The event created a fun, welcoming shopping experience where our persons served could browse donated clothing, household goods, artwork and more, and take home items they truly needed and liked.


Senior Wellness Specialist Natalie Quelopana-Castillo spearheaded the effort from beginning to end. Natalie coordinated donations, organized the merchandise and thoughtfully planned the details that transformed the event into much more than a shopping opportunity. “Her dedication, creativity and commitment to the people we serve truly shined through,” said April Cistrelli, Supportive Housing Director. “Natalie went above and beyond to create an experience that was meaningful, welcoming, fun and centered around the people we serve.” Her goal was simple: create an experience where people felt welcomed, valued and excited to find something that felt just right for them.


Natalie had lots of help too. Staff from across Bridgeway supported the event by donating items themselves and reaching out to others to help secure additional donations. Members of the ISH team worked together to make sure as many people as possible had the opportunity to participate, while three persons served volunteered their own time in the weeks leading up to the event to help sort and organize donations. That spirit of teamwork made the day especially meaningful.

Participants left with some favorite finds, but the day was about much more than clothing. It was about choice, connection, community and creating a little joy together.


A big thank you to Natalie, the entire Intensive Supportive Housing team and everyone who donated or helped make this wonderful event possible!


 

MEDICARE CHANGES ARE COMING

Big changes to Medicaid are on the way, and the people most likely to fall through the cracks are the ones who move a lot, change phone numbers, or don't open their mail. That's a lot of the folks we serve.


If the state can't reach someone, they can lose coverage without ever knowing there was a problem. A quick reminder from you could keep that from happening.


Here's what to tell clients (and any family members of your own who receive NJ FamilyCare or Medicaid):


• Make sure your address, phone and email are current with the state.

• Open anything that comes from NJ FamilyCare or the state. Don't toss it.

• Pay attention to deadlines. Missing one can mean losing coverage.

TRUSTEE REFLECTIONS


Beyond the Myth: Understanding the Reality of OCD



By Mark T. Williams, BSN, RN-BC, FMNLI, FCPP

Bridgeway Board Trustee

When we hear the term "OCD," images of a perfectly organized desk or someone washing their hands excessively often come to mind. In pop culture, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is frequently used as shorthand for being tidy or particular. However, these societal stereotypes trivialize a serious and often debilitating mental health condition.


At Bridgeway Behavioral Health Services, we believe that understanding is the first step toward compassion. OCD Awareness Week: October 11 - 17, 2026, dedicated to sharing facts and reducing misunderstandings about obsessive-compulsive disorder. During the month we are debunking common misconceptions about OCD.


Myth #1: OCD is just about being neat.

Reality: While orderliness can be a compulsion for some, OCD is not a personality quirk. It is a cycle of unwanted, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) performed to relieve intense anxiety. For many, the compulsions are invisible - such as silent mental counting or repeated checking - and have nothing to do with cleanliness.


Myth #2: People with OCD just need to "relax."

Reality: OCD is a biological and neurological disorder, not a choice or a bad habit. Telling someone to "just stop" is like telling someone with asthma to "just breathe." The behaviors are driven by a brain chemistry loop that requires professional intervention.


Myth #3: It’s rare.

Reality: According to the International OCD Foundation, roughly 1 in 100 adults and 1 in 200 children live with OCD. It is more common than many realize, yet stigma often prevents people from seeking the help they need.


As a society, let’s commit to looking beyond the stereotypes. If you or a loved one is struggling with intrusive thoughts or repetitive behaviors that interfere with daily life, you are not alone. Bridgeway is here to provide evidence-based support and hope.
