Join us for the Light the Path Gala on Saturday, April 3, 2027, from 6–9 p.m. at Delightful Acres Wedding & Events. 🏡✨

🏠 Everyone deserves a safe place to land.

For a family experiencing homelessness, having a safe place to sleep is just the beginning.

At New Pathways, our new 24/7 family shelter provides more than a roof. Families have access to supportive services, case management, showers, laundry, meals, mental health support, and a team of people walking alongside them as they work toward stable housing.

Because homelessness is not a destination. It is a chapter.

And with the right support, that chapter can change. ❤️

We believe every family deserves the opportunity to move forward, rebuild, and find a place they can truly call home.

🏡 New Pathways is more than a shelter.

You may know us for helping families experiencing homelessness, but did you know about everything that happens under our roof?

💙 24/7 Family Shelter
A safe place for families to sleep, eat, shower, do laundry and begin working toward what’s next.

🏠 Supportive Housing
Helping families transition into stable housing while continuing to provide support along the way.

🍽️ Meals That Matter
Community groups, businesses, churches and individuals provide warm evening meals that offer much more than food. They create connection, comfort and a sense of home.

📚 Tutoring & Family Support
Helping children succeed in school while supporting parents with goals, resources, housing and employment.

🛒 The Marketplace
Families can access everyday essentials like personal care items, baby supplies, clothing and household necessities.

🤝 Ongoing Support
Because getting into housing is just the beginning. We continue connecting families with resources and support as they build stability.

Every program has the same goal:
➡️ Help families move from homelessness to home.

And every one of these programs takes a community. That’s where YOU come in. ❤️

Whether you volunteer, donate, provide a meal, tutor, give needed items or simply share our mission, you are helping Light the Path Home. ✨

New Pathways provides shelter, housing support, and hope for families with children experiencing homelessness throughout Central Minnesota.
