About Pathways
Our mission is to serve the immediate needs of individuals and families experiencing homelessness within the Yankton area, while engaging partners in developing long-term solutions. The shelter was founded on the belief that everyone deserves a home.
Pathways has been in existence since 1994. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. We aim to be a “hand-up” rather than a “hand-out” in breaking the cycle of homelessness.
