Several years ago when Toys for Tots was unable to provide for our community, P.A.T.H. created P.A.T.H. to Christmas. We will never let the children in our community go without Christmas, however, is anyone better positioned to take the lead in this? We would clearly defer to that group or organization if so. Please advise as quickly as possible as this is time sensitive. Thank you !

Today marked an important milestone for PATH as we launched transportation services with the METS Van. Fittingly, the first client served through this program was Michael, whose story highlights the impact that coordinated support and compassionate care can have during a time of crisis.

Michael came to PATH after experiencing a series of devastating challenges. He had recently been hospitalized and diagnosed with several medical illnesses that will need long term treatment, leaving him in a fragile medical condition. During his hospitalization, his significant other abandoned him, taking his wallet, cell phone, and personal belongings. Upon discharge, Michael found himself without resources, support, or a clear path forward.

Despite these obstacles, Michael remained determined to improve his situation. Working closely with a PATH case manager, he was able to reconnect with family members in Omaha, Nebraska. His family welcomed him with open arms and confirmed that they had a safe and stable place for him to live while focusing on his health and recovery.

To help make this transition possible, PATH assisted Michael by purchasing a Greyhound bus ticket and coordinating transportation to Chico. As the very first passenger transported in the newly operating METS Van, Michael began his journey toward reunification with family, stability, and renewed hope.

This success story demonstrates the importance of timely intervention, case management, transportation assistance, and family reunification. What began as a situation marked by illness, loss, and uncertainty ended with a pathway to support, housing, and recovery. PATH is honored to have the partnership with Tehama County Transportation Commission and the METS program to have played a role in helping Michael reconnect with his family and take the next step toward treatment and recovery.

At PATH Navigation Center, our mission is to serve individuals experiencing homelessness with dignity, respect, accountability, and support. We understand there have recently been discussions on social media regarding client services, and we want to provide clarification on how service suspensions and revocations are handled.

PATH operates as a behavioral-based program that utilizes progressive disciplinary measures whenever possible. Our goal is always to help individuals remain engaged in services while maintaining a safe environment for clients, staff, volunteers, and the community.

This means that rule violations do not automatically result in permanent removal from services. In many situations, clients may be temporarily asked to leave for the remainder of the day and encouraged to return the following day prepared to follow program expectations.

However, there are certain behaviors that may result in suspension or revocation of services, including but not limited to:
• Violence or threats of violence toward staff, clients, or visitors
• Physical altercations or aggressive behavior
• Possession, use, or distribution of drugs or alcohol on PATH property
• Repeated violations of program rules after prior interventions
• Behavior that creates an unsafe environment for others

PATH believes in accountability paired with opportunities for restoration whenever appropriate. In some cases involving substance use, services may be reinstated after the individual engages in treatment or demonstrates steps toward recovery and compliance with program expectations.

Our staff work hard every day to balance compassion with safety. We remain committed to helping those willing to work within the structure of the program and to treating every individual fairly and respectfully.

🚨 Well, well… looks like we had a “situation” on Monday 👀
Our Director of Operations, Jimmy, was “apprehended” and placed in Red Bluff Sunrise Rotary "Roving Jail".
Good news, no one’s stayed locked up for long. Around here, second chances (and a good sense of humor) are always part of the plan.
At PATH, we believe in building community, creating stability, and making room for moments like this, because connection matters just as much as progress.
