OUR STORY

LNJ Bridges was founded by Rick and Wanda Jenovese in 2026 and named in honor of their daughter with special needs.

As she transitioned into adulthood, we encountered a significant lack of coordinated guidance, resources, and faith-centered support. While childhood services were structured, adulthood felt uncertain and fragmented.

Through prayer and lived experience, we realized many families were navigating this same path—often alone.

What began as a personal journey became a calling.

Our Heart

We believe every person is created in the image of God—deeply loved, uniquely gifted, and deserving of dignity and purpose.

We exist to:

  • Affirm Dignity

  • Inspire Hope

  • Equip Families

  • Create Pathways For

    Independence And Belonging

WHAT MAKES LNJ BRIDGES UNIQUE

Built from Lived Experience

We understand firsthand the confusion and isolation families face.

Focused on Adulthood

Support often disappears after childhood. We intentionally serve this stage.

Faith-Centered

Christ-centered compassion guides everything we do.

Relational, Not Institutional

Families are known and heard—not treated as cases.

A Bridge Between Faith & Practical Support

We integrate spiritual encouragement with real-world navigation.

WHY NOW

The transition into adulthood is a critical season.

  • Families need clarity.
  • Adults need opportunity.
  • Communities need awareness.

Now is the time to build bridges.
