Our Vision

All students who have experienced foster care or homelessness will have the chance to reach

their full potential through education and community support.

Positive Pathways exists to support college coaches, foster care liaisons, independent living caseworkers, and other youth advocates as they strive to help former foster youth succeed in college.
— Brett McNaught, CEO, Educate Tomorrow, Positive Pathways Program Supervisor

OUR MISSION

Positive Pathways supports campus-based and community-based child welfare and education professionals who

provide accessible, informed, consistent and focused support to students using the DCF and homeless student exemptions.

The Value of Association

Positive Pathways is, in essence, an association of professionals working with young adults from foster care. Through this association, you have access to like-minded colleagues striving to provide the best possible service to students receiving the DCF Tuition and Fee Exemption to pursue education beyond high school.

We can connect you to the right professionals at other campuses or with state level leaders  who can help you quickly resolve challenges or questions you have, regarding serving former foster students on your campus.
