Today we celebrate the courage of our forefathers and foremothers, the tenacity of our ancestors and the Black hands that built this country.
Make no mistake, there's much more work to be done. But we would not be here without them.
Happy Juneteenth, our day of freedom.

While the last enslaved people were technically set free in 1865, the legacy of slavery persists: it continues to affect the Black community in insidious ways, including the overrepresentation of Black people among those experiencing homelessness.

We are thankful for Abe and Jinsei’s support of Pathways! Check out their story below!
Abe Houma’s life in West Africa and time with his mother taught him the importance of sharing with others. His generosity and his work ethic has become part of his business philosophy and the reason he is this week’s Alabama Champion.

“The focus is on just learning to be a person, to have the resilience socially and emotionally that they may not have due to the traumas they’ve experienced so early in their lives.” bit.ly/3KBx0Lu @pathwayshome

“The teachers are trained to see these challenging behaviors not as, ‘What’s wrong with you?’ or as something that should be punished or corrected, but as an opportunity to ask, ‘What happened to you?’." earlylearningnation.com/2019… @pathwayshome @KCCompton

At @pathwayshome, teachers are trained to see challenging behaviors not as, ‘What’s wrong with you?’ but as an opportunity to ask, ‘What happened to you?’ All about providing a safe space for big feelings + learning social-emotional skills for resiliency. bit.ly/3UDV70H

Finding #childcare is hard enough for people who have regular housing-- imagine experiencing homelessness AND looking for child care while you try to regain your footing. @pathwayshome knew they had to act: bit.ly/3KBx0Lu

Pathways (@pathwayshome), a Birmingham shelter for women and children, offers more than a safe place to stay — it also offers licensed child care to support parents attending job interviews, meetings, or trainings. @jackiemader @hechingerreport hechingerreport.org/shelter-…

"There’s no single reason for the rise in the older homeless population. Weak social safety nets, mass incarceration policies and an insufficient supply of affordable housing are among the many factors."

Roses are red
Housing is a human right
Let's make it easier for people
To have a home to sleep in at night.
