It’s a good day for staff development!

Team members from across Path of Life’s programs were excited to join the La Sierra University Department of Social Work at their annual Poverty Simulation event, this morning.

Did you know that approximately 1 in 9 Riverside residents live below the poverty level? We were energized by the robust discussion and community insight into the state of this chronic crisis and the collaborative approaches to addressing challenges faced by our neighbors.

Meet Daisy! 💚 This moment is years in the making.

After navigating shelter and supportive services since 2019, Daisy has moved into permanent supportive housing - a place of stability and dignity she’s long worked towards.

“I’m excited, happy and a bit nervous,” she shared.

With Daisy’s perseverance and ongoing support, the apartment is more than housing. 🏡 It’s home.
We’re also grateful to her landlord who joined the celebration by donating a bed and kitchen supplies.

With careful housing placement, services, and community support, moments like this are possible. This is why permanent supportive housing works.
