Description
New Pathways to Health and Opportunity is a partnership that was formed when a number of separate and individual initiatives that were all working on similar issues toward compatible outcomes joined forces to work on the interrelated challenges and opportunities of health, healthcare, and economic development in the Mississippi Delta region. After many years of collaboration, the New Pathways partnership remains robust, and its combined programs and efforts continue to evolve to both address community needs and to make use of new resources and opportunities that emerge. Leaders from each of the organizations that comprise the partnership will provide background data, tell the stories of their collective efforts, share lessons learned, and offer recommendations for using community building and organizing strategies to help young people and their families work together to promote health and overall wellbeing in their communities.
