Path Home

Path Home empowers homeless families with children to get back into housing - and stay there.  Every year, Path Home serves more than 500 families in the Portland area per year across all programs including Family Village Emergency Shelter, Rapid Re-housing, Homeless Prevention, and Basic Income.

The innovative, trauma-informed design of Path Home’s Family Village shelter provides families with children opportunities for playing, healing, and rebuilding while also providing a wide range of services and support to move families back into housing. Families say that the care, compassion, and dignity they experience working with Path Home are what propel them to get up every day and do the hard work to make changes their lives for the better.  Path Home’s model is working: 96% of families who stay in shelter at Family Village move into housing compared to 50% or less at the average Portland shelter.
