Everyone deserves to hope
We open our arms and our hearts to give people the support they need to grow together and thrive.
Through programs tailored to meet individual and families unique needs, we focus on individual capabilities and raise hope by empowering them to overcome barriers on the path to sufficiency. We seek to address the root causes of poverty in addition to The Army’s history of compassionate serving. By helping people overcome challenges like unemployment, unstable housing, and lack of education, we can lead people down a path toward increased stability and, ultimately, self-sufficiency.
Pathway of Hope
Pathway of Hope is a Salvation Army approach to create a path out of poverty. We provide targeted services to anyone with a desire to break the cycle of crisis. Through case management, we focus on a person's capabilities and raise hope by empowering them to overcome barriers on the path to stability. Participants set their own goals, and we partner with them to provide the resources needed to accomplish each one.
The Salvation Army’s Pathway of Hope initiative marks a pivotal shift from treating the symptoms of poverty to preventing the epidemic at its root. By helping people overcome barriers like unemployment, unstable housing, and lack of education, we can break the cycle of crisis and vulnerability, leading people down a path toward increased stability – a Pathway of Hope that will profoundly affect generations to come.
Among the world’s 35 wealthiest countries, the United States has the second-highest child poverty rate. And children who live in poverty for half their lives are 32 times more likely to remain in poverty. Which means the epidemic is passed down from one generation to the next, over and over again. The cost to those families who are trapped in the cycle of poverty is staggering, but we must also consider that the effects of child poverty cost our country nearly $500 billion per year.
This program is available at every Salvation Army service center in Minnesota and North Dakota. There are no income requirements to join the program.
