Positive Paths is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization serving women and their families in the East Valley of Phoenix, Arizona. We are dedicated to advocating for and supporting the economic stability and empowerment of women. Positive Paths is led by a group of forward-thinking East Valley leaders committed to encouraging others to invest in the futures of East Valley women in need, and to support women to be resilient and positive contributors to their communities. We believe that empowering women to be key change agents is an essential element to achieving a world that works for everyone. In fact, studies show that when women are supported and empowered, all of society benefits – families are healthier, more children complete elementary and high school and go on to trade school or college, productivity improves and incomes increase. In short, communities are strengthened. Join us as we strive to improve our community by providing the needed education, mentoring, and professional development skills for women to obtain economic security for themselves, their families, and our community!
