The Pathways System is a 40-week program that moves single moms who are “getting by” but remain vulnerable to a more secure, stable, and self sufficient state. Throughout four phases, this programming includes life coaching, career readiness in healthcare to become certified as a CMA, adult education, health and wellness, financial literacy, and preparation for first-time homeownership.

Knowing that our mission to significantly disrupt the poverty rate in Indiana can only succeed with rigorous evaluations, we prioritize evidence-based outcomes.
