Developing Future Leaders

Pathways includes engaging activities to help children (ages 6-18) excel academically, develop critical life skills, and explore meaningful career paths.

Transportation is provided from local schools to our facility, based on demand. 

Pathways is provided at no cost to families thanks to the generosity of the Indian River County community. 

The program occurs Monday through Friday after school from 3:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
