Impact and Programs
Accomplishments
New Pathways, Inc. supported 40 families on their journey towards housing stability and self- sufficiency in 2021-2022. Well over half of the people served in our programs were children.
Housing stability is the main goal of the Supportive Housing Program. Sixteen (16) households were served, including 30 children. Of those served, 63% resided in their housing for over 3-10 years.
Resolving the housing crisis is the main goal of the Path to Home Shelter Program. The program does this by keeping families together while providing safe shelter, support services and all basic needs. Twenty-four (24) families were served, including 42 children. Of those served, 79% secured permanent housing at exit. The Path to Home Shelter Program turned away 43 families due to being at capacity.
Current Goals
Path to Home Shelter Program: 70% of families leaving shelter will move into permanent housing (securing housing)
Supportive Housing Program: 100% remain in the program and house at the one year mark (housing stability)
