Laura’s Home to provide resources to children in need | Philanthropy


The Pathways program at Laura’s Home will provide children with physical, educational, emotional and spiritual activities to aid in their healing as summer vacation approaches.

“Some children experience homelessness as a result of domestic violence in the home, or due to barriers of their parents’ health,” Katie Skizenta, family ministries supervisor, said in a news release. “There are shared impacts of trauma that we help each child recover from.”

Children can receive tutoring, access to mental health resources, daily activities, support from staff, off campus field trips and more through the program, according to the release.

“Because of Pathways, mothers at Laura’s Home are able to focus on their own coursework and counseling, knowing that their kids are not just in safe hands, but growing alongside them,” Linda Uveges, CEO, said in the release.

From now through May 31, The City Mission is participating in a $100,000 matching gift to support the program, the release stated.
