IN ST. CHARLES COUNTY
Pathways to Independence helps low-support needs individuals (16 years+) with developmental disabilities or autism form genuine communities. We provide a safe space for participants to let go and have fun, where they can form friendships, build skills and ultimately plan their own social activities outside of those facilitated by Pathways.
The need in St. Charles is as great as anywhere else in the St. Louis region. We’re eager to highlight our services that are meeting neurodiverse individuals in St. Charles where they are.
It’s as easy as…
Give us a call at (314) 863-0202 or submit a website inquiry at the bottom of this page to set up a meeting and see if Pathways might be the right fit for you!
