Pathways to Opportunity is a program designed to provide intensive services for individuals with disabilities who want to create their path to a good future with a promising job. Career navigators will guide candidates through individualized steps toward economic independence. Candidates must have a disability, live in Marion County and meet income level requirements.
Jeff is a recent program graduate. He started the program in September 2023 after experiencing some setbacks within his professional and personal life due to addiction.
He began a program with Alcoholics Anonymous and found temporary housing within Wheeler Mission. He was referred to our Pathways program and began the process of turning his situation around. After much hard work, he now has a promising job, a car, his driver’s license, healthcare and an apartment.
He still has goals ahead of him, but he is on his way toward self-sufficiency. Staff who worked with Jeff are so proud of his progress and consider him part of the Pathways family.
