Paths To Wholeness

Mission for Paths To Wholeness Paths To Wholeness is a non-profit organization dedicated to effectively assisting formerly incarcerated women in developing, thriving, and successfully integrating back into society.

Paths To Wholeness is a nonprofit organization that proposes to help formerly incarcerated women prepare to reenter their communities. We service women from across the state of South Carolina. We begin our services three months before release from prison to offer an opportunity for vetting and allowing the potential client to learn about our program and its staff. We offer a one-year residential program at our transitional Home called "Bea's House" in Orangeburg, SC. Partnering with other community agencies like Orangeburg Mental Health, Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College, SC Works, and others, we provide the needed services for women released from prison and desire to become productive citizens in our community. In addition to training in life skills, our staff assists the residents with services that will empower them to succeed in employment efforts, furthering their educational endeavors, and reunification requirements. We offer a multigenerational approach to reunification, allowing our client and her children to participate in parenting classes, resources, and character development. We follow each client for an additional year upon completing our one-year program.

Testimonials

Paths To Wholeness has made a difference in the Midlands through its impact on the lives of our clients. One client had taken college courses while incarcerated and was excited to register for classes at Orangeburg- Calhoun Technical College. The first semester was difficult, but she did not give up. Instead, she persevered and felt very good about her accomplishment. There were many lessons she learned from this experience, but the most important lesson was that she could succeed.
