WHO WE HELP
Have More Control Over the Services You Offer
PathWays will assist you with offering your individuals the opportunity to self-direct their services, giving more control and flexibility over who, what, where, and when services are offered. The service unit cost is less than most in-home services, allowing for full optimization of an individual's budget.
When individuals self-direct their services, it benefits their life and develops their independence. Allow them to make individual choices while you guide them onto the best path for them.
