Pathways to Progress

Combining client's knowledge with the advocacy of a case manager to transform lives

St. Francis Community Services empower low-income multicultural individuals and families to improve their lives.

Overview

Pathways to Progress is a program that empowers our community members with long-term case management. St. Francis Community Service case managers work with individuals and families as they work toward change in their lives. Our case manager’s role is to act as a support to the individual and their family. They are a guide to community resources and services and provide encouragement when the journey is long and difficult.

While each person faces unique challenges, many clients want to improve their education or find employment that pays a living wage. They may be working to find better housing, reduce debt, or enhance parenting skills. Whatever their goals, our case managers are able to provide resources and form the relationships to assist them.

We can connect you with resources to help build on strengths, develop new skills, and address barriers that keep you from financial stability and achieving your potential.
