What it says it does

Clean Pathways established 2019 is a non-denominational Christian Discipleship Program. We currently offer residence to men who desire to live in an environment that is not only drug free but offers life skills building courses centered around biblical principles. Our hope is that they become Christ centered disciples that can live free from all types of life controlling circumstances. Allowing them to work and participate in society during their studies gives them an opportunity to utilize what they learn in class in the real world. By participating in various community service projects will allow them to raise funds for Clean Pathways and other community resources. We believe that this will tear down the self-driven mentality paving the way for true value of themselves and the community that they live in.

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $12,489 spent. In 2024 Clean Pathways has been able to keep the bible discipleship program open for resident students. We continue to work with local mental health office Davis Behavioral Health and Adult Probation and Parole. The program curriculum is still being offered to public for attendance at little or no cost. Clean Pathways has been creating and working on polices and guidelines to better help the people we serve. It is our vision to see people free from all life controlling issues. Most of the men we serve would be homeless or in jail if they had not applied to Clean Pathways. Our Students are required to hold a full time job, participate in community programs, and are encouraged to further their education. Clean Pathways has also been able to guide several men into working relationships with the mother of their children. Two of the men have custody of their sons as a result of their hard work. It is our hope to continue the ministry for years to come.
