Mission: Pathways to Education is an award-winning program that supports young people from low-income communities to complete high school and move onto post-secondary education. A Community based model, the program provides a holistic approach to supporting youth facing multiple barriers to successful completion of high school. The program also supports students in applying and researching post-secondary programs.

Pathways to Education was conceived in the belief that young people and communities have within them tremendous strength, resilience, and potential. The Pathways Program supports, enables, and amplifies these strengths. We see this value lived in our day-to-day work when we are nurturing the strengths and potential of each other, valuing others’ experience, and building on success.
