Mission & Focus Areas
Path’s 2024 filing describes its mission as ending homelessness across California through temporary and permanent housing and supportive services that help clients remain housed. The filing describes permanent supportive housing as combining long-term rental subsidies with intensive case management for people who have experienced chronic homelessness and live with disabilities or chronic medical or behavioral health conditions. Its interim housing program offers a temporary place to stay while people work with Path staff toward permanent housing. Its rapid rehousing program pairs rental subsidies with intensive case management to help individuals and families move quickly into their own homes.
In 2025, Path gave to California organizations working in areas that included transitional housing, family and children’s services, meals, outreach, health care, legal support for veteran families, and services for young people experiencing homelessness. For example, Aviva says it provides therapeutic services and guidance to at-risk children and families; Loaves & Fishes Family Kitchen says it operates food programs for people facing food insecurity; and Family Health Centers of San Diego says it provides health care with a special commitment to low-income, medically underserved people. These are the grantees’ stated missions, not Path’s.
Grantmaking
In filing year 2025, Path reported 11 grants totaling $4,947,347. Grant amounts ranged from $72,135 to $1,381,871, with a median of $298,052. Its largest listed grants were $1,381,871 to Housing for Independent People for transitional housing; $1,286,916 to Hamburger Home DBA Aviva Family and Children’s Services for support and therapeutic services to families and children; and $622,926 to Loaves and Fishes Family Kitchen to provide meals in the Bay Area.
Other listed awards included $342,042 to Safe Place for Youth, $319,946 to Inner City Law Center, $298,052 to Interfaith Community Services, and $243,932 to Family Health Centers of San Diego. Path’s 2024 filing narrative says applications from tax-exempt entities are reviewed and that background checks are made, with the grant’s mission considered. The website’s current procurement page lists no RFPs; it does not describe a grant application process.
