Today Family Pathways is a leading human service organization providing a person-centered response to social determinants that affect the health and well-being of residents across east-central Minnesota and western Wisconsin. A deep-rooted history in the community and direct service expertise in multiple program areas, including access to healthy food, domestic violence, sexual assault intervention, and supportive services for older adults- makes Family Pathways unique. Family Pathways’ mission is to work alongside people to enhance lives through a continuum of essential services and, together with the community, champion positive social change. Together with volunteers, donors, partners, and the community at large, neighbors can access stability and hope - contributing to the overall vitality of the region. Programming includes Food Equity and Access Services comprised of nine food shelves and a mobile food truck; Parenting Time Services assuring children have safe contact with family members as they navigate challenging times and transitions. Aging Services engage our aging population through companionship, advocacy, education, and caregiver support. At the same time, Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Services provide comprehensive assistance to victims of family violence and sexual assault. Each of these programs is supported, in part, through the Family Pathways social enterprise model, which consists of ten thrift stores and a recycling center.

We care deeply that children with disabilities in the world’s poorest communities live healthier, happier, longer lives. Too many of these kids are sick, lonely, abused, dying. We believe each one is loved and valued by God. No child should be forgotten. Why? Because we believe that a whole world needs everyone. No one should be forgotten. So together with Canadians like you, we fight for equal access to school and to jobs for people with disabilities in developing countries. Together with you, we give healing hugs to kids in need – giving medical and rehabilitative care that heals young bodies and mends broken hearts. Together with you we share God’s love with the most vulnerable children and families on the planet.
