About BridgeYear
Connecting you to careers worth building.
We believe every young person in Houston deserves a path to financial independence. MorePathways® is your guide for getting there.
Who is BridgeYear?
Your partner in the journey from student to professional.
BridgeYear is a Houston-based nonprofit on a mission to ensure that your background never limits your future. We focus on bridging the gap between high school and the professional world by connecting you to careers that offer economic stability, growth, and independence.
We know that the path to a great career isn’t one-size-fits-all. Many of Houston’s highest-paying and most in-demand jobs don’t require a four-year degree, but they do require a plan.
BridgeYear works in high schools across the city to equip you with the knowledge, confidence, and direct access to training programs needed to launch your career. By partnering with local employers, training programs and community colleges, we turn your goals into a reality, providing a clear roadmap to meet your financial goals and a career you can be proud of.
