Level Pathways wants to give a huge shout out to Dr. Elba Garcia, Dallas County Commissioner District 4. Not only does she spend large amounts of time working on county business such as roads and bridges, the county jail, all county services and employees, but she also cares deeply about kids. Dr. Garcia supports Level Pathways because she knows it will change the future of Dallas County. Thank you so much for your support, Dr. Garcia. From all of us here at Level Pathways (the board and staff) and the homeless and at-risk kids at Level Pathways - thank you!

If you were by the LP offices today, you probably could have heard us cheering from down the street! With all of the graduations happening, we have so much to celebrate. Today, we are thrilled to celebrate Eva. Eva has officially graduated from the Level Pathways program! She has worked so hard to get her GED. We are amazed by her determination and perseverance. Eva is also an important member of Team LP. She is our wonderful Administrative Assistant and Resident Advisor at the T House. She is pictured with her daughter who we lovingly refer to as "The Intern." Way to go, Eva!! 🫶

Who is ready for graduation?! We sure are here at Level Pathways! We are so excited for our 7 students who will be graduating! They have worked so hard and we are so proud of them.

Level Pathways helps unhoused youth graduate high school.

Last night Lacey Denton, Christy Sloan and Ashley Monroe Pathways attended Cocktails for a Cause Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce

Level Pathways has moved! We are super excited about our new offices next to Pizza King of Irving. Come by and say "Hello" . . .

Thank you to Frost for generously donating tickets for our students to attend the Irving Symphony Orchestra!! Our students were super excited to attend and enjoyed the show immensely!

This is Cris with his new banker Mr. Williams who helped him create his own bank account.

Level Pathways teaches all of our students the importance of budgeting and saving. We encourage each student to save 50% of their paycheck so when they graduate they will have enough saved up to take the next step in following their dream.

Cris is very excited to start saving for his future! Congrats Cris! We are so proud of you!

Thank you to Mr. Williams and Chase bank for helping Cris take this important step towards independence!

We are excited to report that Level Pathways received 2 amazing bicycles, 3 helmets, and 2 bike locks from a generous donor! We are so thankful to this donor who wishes to remain anonymous. Our students will greatly appreciate these items. These bikes will allow Andrew and Maya more freedom to get themselves to and from work and run occasional errands as needed.

THANK YOU!!

Hello Friends! Level Pathways has two students who need bicycles. Andrew is a senior in high school who needs a bike to get to his after-school job so he can save for his future. Maya is a young mom who is working to earn her GED and needs a bike to get to work and run the occasional errand.

Needed: one men's bicycle
Needed: one medium women's bicycle with a toddler seat

Please contact us if you have a bicycle you would like to donate: [email protected] or 972-887-3344.

THANK YOU!!

Level Pathways was represented in the "Point In Time" or PIT count for the 7th year by Team LP.
Representing the LP team this year were (L->R) Adam Harris, John Pauley and Bob Harris, all returning PIT counters.

The team goes out into the community with a Police officer to attempt to count persons who are without stable shelter. These numbers are recorded on an app the team carries with them, then the numbers are eventually reported to the Federal government.
Of course there are challenges, like finding and identifying folks in the dark.
Adam Harris is especially good at ferreting out folks in tents or other non-traditional shelter. John serves the technical side of the team by recording folks on the app.

Thank You to Bioworld Merch for your generous gift!! Bioworld is a local corporation with a big heart. They are a trusted partner for brands and retailers of every size. We appreciate Bioworld's continuing support of Level Pathways and our mission to serve teens experiencing homelessness in North Texas.

How can we say a Sincere Thank You to our donors? Please know that because of your gift we'll keep on providing services for homeless teens. THANK YOU.

Level Pathways hits it’s NTGD goal of $35,000 with a weekend donation.
