Self-Sufficiency Center

Starting January 1, 2025, our programs and services are now just for families with children enrolled at Compass Early Learning Center. This means the Family Resource Center is only open to Compass families.

The Family Resource Center at Pathways supports Compass Early Learning Center families with essential services and long-term self-sufficiency programs. We provide weekly grocery, cleaning, and hygiene items, conveniently available daily for easy pick-up during child pick-up times, saving families both money and time.

Income-eligible families may qualify for up to 4 months' rent/mortgage or utility payments. Email Katie to inquire.

Additionally, we offer Opportunity Funds to help families manage financial challenges, such as housing costs, medical bills, or debt consolidation and other assistance that can provide up to 4 months' rent or utilities for eligible families. Our Your Path program pairs custodial parents with mentors for a 2-3 year journey toward greater stability in areas like housing, wellness, and career development, helping families achieve lasting economic mobility.
