Are you stuck in a cycle of poverty, just getting by, and not sure which way to turn? If so, we encourage you to check out our Pathways to Independence program.

The Way Station’s PTI program is designed to help local families get back on their feet. Pathways is available to those residing in Columbiana County who have a child under the age of 19 in the home and who fall within the income guidelines listed.

This program includes regular classes, weekly mentoring for encouragement and feedback and monthly team building opportunities. Gas, gift card and other financial incentives are offered along the way as participants regularly attend meetings, set and accomplish goals.

Interested individuals are encouraged to contact our PTI Program Director, Tammy Blackburn with any questions and to sign up for our next session at 330-932-0353. 

PTI is funded by Columbiana County Department of Job and Family Services.
