Pathway to Financial Stability
Pathway to Financial Stability educates participants in sound financial practices to increase income, decrease expenses, and build assets.
Operation Pathways is a national partner with America Saves Week, a program that stresses the importance of paying oneself first. Additionally, Operation Pathways partners with local financial institutions to provide financial literacy instruction and expertise for our participants. Residents in this program are coached by staff and volunteers who help guide them through lessons. With this education, residents are able to build budgets and begin saving for their futures. In 2017, the amount of money saved during ASW nearly tripled since 2015. In 2017 • 562 individuals participated in America Saves Week • America Saves Week participants saved over $20,000 in total (at least 3 months after making the pledge to save) • 3,997 individuals participated in financial programs and services • 1,297 individuals participated in workforce development programming • 288 individuals received eviction prevention assistance • 1,263 individuals received housing and home ownership assistance
