hose of us working in the community development and human service arena are
now connected virtually with partners and participants in ways we could not
imagine just a few years ago.
We are grateful to be able to have instantaneous communications with friends near or far, and to be able to tell our story through
Facebook (/pathstonecorp), Twitter (@PathStoneCorp), and of course, our website (pathstone.org).
One of the major barriers for many of the participants we serve is that they are not always technologically connected.
We are creating ways in which we can bridge the digital-divide in order to connect our participants to opportunities in the most
efficient and cost-effective manner possible.
As illustrated in this report, PathStone “connected” with thousands of individuals and families in FY 2012. Our participants have
experienced exciting, challenging and life-changing opportunities to: build new personal and community assets, decide where and
how they want to live, and receive educational resources and vocational skills to sustain them throughout their lives.
We invite you to join us as we seek to connect with our community partners to advocate for those who have been left behind.
Thank you for your support of our mission and work. We are deeply honored and grateful to be in partnership with you.
“We invite you to
join us as we
continue to
serve and
advocate for
those who
have been left
behind, and
as we seek to
connect with
more
participants
and
community
partners. ”

ime and time again, we see families struggling to improve economic
opportunity both through earnings, as well as the development of
assets. Asset building and planning for the future is crucial for
individuals and families looking to lead meaningful and productive lives.
PathStone proudly works in urban and rural communities to develop both
tangible and intangible assets—savings accounts, home equity, improved
education and meaningful employment opportunities.
At PathStone, one of the most significant and tangible ways of building assets
is quite literally, through the development of affordable housing for low-income
individuals of all ages and abilities. PathStone’s Real Estate Development staff
works with community partners, non-profits, private developers and
government officials to design and build housing that is affordable, accessible
and seamlessly integrated into the community in which it is built.
• Affordable units developed/rehabilitated: 246
• Rental units repaired: 3,159

Breckenridge Place
Ithaca, NY
Constructed in the heart of
downtown Ithaca, Breckenridge
Place provides 50 units of
accessible and affordable housing
to individuals and families. A mix of
one and two bedroom apartments
located on one of Ithaca’s most
bustling corners, the building
beautifully blends traditional and
modern design elements. Once
the site of the Women’s Community
Building, it is the first major
affordable housing project in
Ithaca’s downtown in over 40
years. PathStone partnered with
Ithaca Neighborhood Housing
Services on the project to bring the
LEED-certified, environmentally
sustainable project to life.
Additionally, PathStone manages nearly 3,000 units
of affordable housing in over 70 different locations,
more than one-third of which are designated for the
elderly or individuals that need additional support.
Many times, tenants living in PathStone properties
seek to improve their personal assets by building
home equity and enrolling in PathStone’s
Homeownership Programs.
Rose Family
Homeownership
The Rose family dreamed of owning
their own home for years, but
worried that their limited income
would not cover all of the expenses.
They learned about PathStone’s
homeownership services while
participating in a Section 8 rental
assistance program, and quickly
enrolled in a homeownership course
and counseling. With PathStone’s
help, the couple improved their credit,
saved for down payment and closing
costs, and secured a direct USDA
loan. The happy homeowners then
successfully applied for a Yates County
HOME grant to help cover the costs
of required rehabilitation to their
new home.
• Homeownership education graduates: 789
• First-time homebuyers: 191
Homeowners also come to PathStone looking for
ways to improve the physical condition and increase
the value of their homes. In FY 2012, participants
received free energy audits of their homes, helping to
keep their homes affordable by reducing energy
consumption and lowering monthly utility bills.
• Homes receiving weatherization and energy
improvements: 216
• Investment in windows, doors, insulation,
caulking, roofing, etc.: $611,850
• Homes rehabilitated: 45 for a total investment
of $759,494
• Homes repaired: 325
Beyond building home equity, PathStone participants
took steps towards self-sufficiency and financial
stability through assistance programs and matched
savings accounts. In Pennsylvania, participants in the
Work Ready and EARN (Employment Advancement
Retention Network) received financial literacy training
and skills to improve creditworthiness, and in Indiana,
families opened Individual Development Accounts
that were matched 3:1.
• EARN participants receiving financial literacy
training: 200
• Indiana families enrolled in IDA accounts: 31
• Total IDA savings: $14,100; Matching and
incentive funds: $44,024
In Puerto Rico, the PathStone Community
Development Corporation of Puerto Rico’s Low
Income Taxpayer Clinic helped participants
manage their assets, recover funds, and create
payment-plans when necessary.
• Tax liabilities released: $86,000
• Tax refunds submitted: $20,511
Phyllis King
Handyman Program
When retired homeowner Phyllis King
found that her front porch was falling
apart and becoming very unsafe to
walk on, she called PathStone’s
Handyman Program looking for
assistance. She used the
program in the past for
small repairs and was
very grateful for the quick
assistance. Working with
the Genesee County
Office for the Aging, the
program was able to
completely replace the
deteriorating steps.

he health and strength of a neighborhood is measured by the
commitment and participation of its residents, business owners,
and community partners.
PathStone believes that vibrant neighborhoods are neighborhoods where residents: have access to safe, affordable
housing, are able to realize their full economic and personal potential, and are provided quality goods and services.
Neighborhoods of choice are places where individuals and families want to lay a foundation, make connections and
give back.
One of the most obvious ways in which PathStone creates communities in which residents want to stay is through
providing services to residents living in some of its properties. Resident services include providing advocacy,
translation/interpretation, benefits resources and navigation, finding appropriate case management, conflict resolution,
crisis intervention, home management, meals and transportation. Additionally, residents volunteer their time to plan
special events and participate on resident councils to ensure the health and stability of their fellow residents.
Beyond services provided to residents living in its properties, PathStone works with communities to engage residents in
activities and provide them with a framework to improve the quality of live in these places. In two cities in New York—
Newburgh and Rochester—community organizing efforts are underway that focus on community revitalization through

resident-driven beautification, safety, housing and
youth initiatives. In these neighborhoods, residents
engage not only with each other, but with local
officials and community partners to put their dreams
for healthier, more livable neighborhoods into action.
• Residents engaged in community revitalization:
150
• Residents and stakeholders actively involved in
community gardening, civic engagement
beautification, etc: 255
• Resident-sustained community gardens in
Marketview Heights: 6
Through its Manufactured Housing Cooperative
Project, PathStone works with residents to collectively
buy their communities and establish a non-profit
board structure that allows for long-term security for
homeowners, adequate reserves for capital
improvements, and perhaps most importantly, pride
in ownership.
• Income above projected budget for Meadow
Valley Park, Inc.: 23%, allowing for purchase of
a community center and necessary infrastructure
improvements
• Total expended for repairs and upgrades to the
sewer system at Marilla Country Village, Inc.:

Candy Apple
Pre-School Center, Inc.
Essential to the health and vitality of
neighborhoods are the small businesses
and entrepreneurs that choose to invest in these
neighborhoods by offering quality goods and
services, and creating opportunities for
meaningful employment. Through the PathStone
Enterprise Center, Inc., PathStone provides
training, technical assistance and access to
financing for entrepreneurs looking to start a
business, or small businesses hoping to expand
or improve their business.
• Microenterprise Assistance Program and other
business solutions training graduates: 221
• Commercial loans closed: 6, totaling
$378,600
• Jobs impacted: 17
Carleen Uimonen, director of Candy
Apple Pre-School Center, Inc., came
to the PathStone Enterprise Center
desperate to fill a financing gap in
the construction of a new facility. The
pre-school had far outgrown its
original space, and had a waiting list
of well over 50 children. PathStone
was able to finance $250K for
Candy Apple, allowing them to
access necessary grant funds for
expansion. In the new facility, Candy
Apple can serve 30% more children,
65% of whom are from low income
families. Excitingly, Candy Apple will
hire ten new staff members to meet
the demands of the growing school.

good education is the foundation upon which stability and selfsufficiency is built. it is the key to unlocking critical resources and
finding meaningful opportunities. PathStone believes that no one is too
young or too old to learn and gain new skills.
Children who participate in formalized early childhood education programs are better prepared for success as they enter
grade school. This is especially true when considering the fact that many children find stability and structure in the
classroom when they otherwise might not find it at home. PathStone operates regional Head Start and Early Head Start
programs for families in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Here, many of the children enrolled in the program are the
children of migrant or seasonal farmworkers that travel with their parents to find agricultural work. For these children
and their families, PathStone provides continuity in their educational preparation, so that they are on target to meet the
goals for children their age.
• Children enrolled in Early and Regional Head Start Programs: 267
• Children enrolled in Migrant and Seasonal Head Start Programs: 443
• Children enrolled in Pre-K Counts programs in Pennsylvania: 47

As children grow into young adults, they face an
entirely new set of demands and challenges that may
be different than those faced by their parents.
PathStone knows that youth engaged in
programming throughout adolescence are far more
likely to enroll in programs of higher education and
make sound decisions. Through various youth
education and training programs, PathStone staff
work with participants to improve their literacy and
math scores, obtain their GED, and gain important
workforce development skills.
• Youth that earned their GED through the House
of Original Dreams (HOOD) program in
Pennsylvania: 100
• Professional certifications in customer service
and digital literacy earned: 54
• Total number of youth enrolled in programs:
154
Workforce development is critical at
any age. Many adults and even
seniors find themselves at a
crossroads at points in their life when
their skills or abilities do not match
with the demands of the labor market.
For some, they have only worked in
one industry and do not have
transferable skills. For others, there
are barriers to finding meaningful employment- a
past criminal record or history of substance abuse.
PathStone operates Adult Training and Employment
Programs including the National Farmworker Jobs
Program, as well as Senior Community Service
Employment Programs (SCSEP) for individuals
looking to improve their marketable skills, explore
new fields, and find meaningful employment.
• Participants receiving skills assessment, career
exploration, job training and/or job placement
services: 3,904
• Hours of community service completed by
SCSEP participants in Pennsylvania: 173,225
PathStone also
provides important
health and safety
training to
individuals already
in the workforce, and extends the training into
resources to create stronger, healthier
communities. Farmworkers receive occupational
health and safety training to ensure that they are
maintaining appropriate standards for workplace
safety, and their families participate in maternal
and child health education programs. PathStone
also provides diabetes and breast cancer
education, mammogram services, HIV counseling,
as well as alcohol, tobacco and drug education
and prevention programs.
• Individuals served through Health and Safety
programs: 11,161
• Individuals receiving training, resources or
case-management through PathStone
Emergency and Supportive Services: 9,108
• Individuals participating in Family SelfSufficiency training, or housing assistance
programs: 4,975
Sojourner House at PathStone, Inc. provides
shelter, structure, and numerous training
opportunities to individuals and families in need,
so they are prepared to lead responsible and
meaningful lives.
• Women and children served in Transitional
and Supportive Housing and other
programming: 521
Ysmael Contreras
Training and
Employment
Working as a farmworker his
entire life, Ysmael Contreras came to
PathStone hoping to find more stable
employement, and allow him to
explore beyond his home of Adams
County, PA. Ysmael expressed interest
in earning his Commercial Driver’s
Liscense and PathStone helped him
enroll in a CDL Training Program.
Ysmael completed the program at the
top of his class and was commended
for his strong work ethic and drive to
succeed in the classroom. He is
employed fulltime with S&H Express
and happily travelling the country with
his newly developed skill.
Nakiesha Osbourne
Literacy4Jersey, Job Search and
Placement Assistance
When Nakiesha Osbourne came to
PathStone’s Job Search and Placement
Assistance program in Vineland, NJ,
she found her greatest barrier to
finding stable employment was that
she never received a high school
diploma. She quickly enrolled in
Literacy4Jersey, and completed over
62 hours of training before sitting for
her GED test. Throughout the
program, Nakiesha faced several
significant challenges and situations of
instability, but one thing remained
constant: she wanted to be a good
role model for her children. Nakiesha
sat with her children every night to
complete homework assignments, and
even celebrated her graduation on her
daughter’s 13th birthday.

na buena educación es la base sobre la cual se construyen la
estabilidad y autosuficiencia. Es la llave para abrir los recursos esenciales
y encontrar oportunidades significativas. PathStone cree que nadie es
muy joven o muy viejo para aprender y obtener nuevas destrezas.
Los niños que participan en programas de educación formalizados para la niñez temprana están mejor preparados
para lograr éxito al ingresas a la escuela primaria. Esto es especialmente cierto cuando se considera el hecho de que
muchos niños encuentran estabilidad y estructura en el salón de clases cuando de otra manera no podrían encontrarlo
en su hogar. PathStone opera programas de Head Start y Early Head Start para familias en Nueva Jersey y
Pennsylvania. Aquí, muchos de los niños matriculados en el programa son niños de trabajadores agrícolas migrantes o
temporeros que viajan con sus padres para encontrar trabajo agrícola. PathStone provee para estos niños y sus familias
continuidad en su preparación educativa de modo que puedan estar encaminados para lograr los objetivos para niños
de su edad.
• Niños matriculados en los programas Head Start Temprano y Regional: 267
• Niños matriculados en los programas Head Start para Migrantes y Temporeros: 443

A medida que los niños crecen para convertirse en
adultos jóvenes, ellos se enfrentan con un conjunto
nuevo de demandas y retos que pueden ser diferentes
de los enfrentados por sus padres. PathStone sabe que
los jóvenes que participan en programas durante su
adolescencia tienen una mayor probabilidad de
matricularse en programas de educación superior y
tomar decisiones acertadas. PathStone trabaja con los
participantes a través de varios programas de educación
y capacitación para jóvenes para mejorar sus puntajes
en alfabetización y matemáticas, obtener su GED y
ganar las destrezas laborales importantes.
• Jóvenes que obtuvieron su GED a través del
programa House of Original Dreams (HOOD,
siglas en inglés para Casa de Sueños Originales)
en Pennsylvania: 100
• Certificaciones profesionales de servicio al
consumidor y alfabetización obtenidas: 54
• Número total de jóvenes matriculados
en programas: 154
El desarrollo de la fuerza laboral es
esencial a cualquier edad. Muchos
adultos y hasta personas mayores se
encuentran en una encrucijada en ciertos
momentos en sus vidas cuando sus
destrezas o capacidades no coinciden
con las demandas del mercado de
trabajo. Algunas personas solamente
han trabajado en una industria y no
tienen destrezas que puedan ser transferidas. Otras se
enfrentan a barreras para encontrar trabajos
significativos—un récord criminal en el pasado o un
historial de abuso de substancias. PathStone opera
programas de capacitación y empleo incluyendo el
National Farmworker Jobs Program, así como el Senior
Community Service Employment Programs (SCSEP, siglas
en inglés para Programas de Empleo en Servicios a la
Comunidad para Personas Mayores) para individuos
que buscan mejorar sus destrezas comerciales, explorar
nuevos campos y encontrar empleo significativo.
• Participantes que recibieron
evaluaciones de sus
destrezas, exploración de
carrera y servicios de
adiestramiento para el empleo y/o colocación
en empleos: 3,904
• Horas de servicios a la comunidad completadas
por los participantes de SCSEP en Pennsylvania:
173,225
PathStone provee también información importante
sobre la formación en salud y seguridad a individuos
que están en la fuerza laboral, y extiende la
formación e recursos para crear comunidades más
fuertes y sanas. Los trabajadores agrícolas reciben
formación en salud y seguridad ocupacional para
asegurar que ellos mantienen los estándares
apropiados de seguridad en el lugar de trabajo, y sus
familias participan en programas de educación sobre
la salud de la madre y el niño. PathStone también
provee educación sobre diabetes y cáncer de la
mama, servicios de mamografía, asesoramiento
sobre el VIH, así como programas de educación y
prevención de alcohol, tabaco y drogas.
• Individuos servidos a través de los programas de
salud y seguridad: 11,161
• Individuos que recibieron formación, recursos y
gestión de casos a través de los servicios de
emergencia y apoyo de PathStone: 9,108
• Individuos que participaron en formación de
autosuficiencia familiar o en los programas de
asistencia para vivienda: 4,975
Sojourner House at PathStone, Inc. proporciona
refugio, estructura y oportunidades de capacitación a
las personas y familias necesitadas, por lo que están
dispuestos a llevar una vida responsable y con sentido.

Ysmael Contreras
Adiestramiento y
Empleo
Habiendo trabajado toda
su vida como trabajador
agrícola, Ysmael Contreras vino a
PathStone esperando encontrar un
empleo más estable y que le
permitiera explorar más allá de su
hogar en el condado de Adams, PA.
Ysmael expresó interés en obtener su
licencia como conductor comercial y
PathStone le ayudó a matricularse en
el CDL Training Program. Ysmael
completó el programa en lo más alto
de su clase y fue elogiado por su ética
de trabajo y su impulso para tener
éxito en el salón de clases. Él está
empleado a jornada completa en S&H
Express y muy felizmente viaja por el
país con su recién desarrollada
destreza.
Nakiesha Osbourne
Literacy4Jersey, Asistencia
para Búsqueda y Colocación
en Empleo
Cuando Nakiesha Osbourne vino al
programa de Asistencia para Búsqueda
y Colocación en Empleo de PathStone
en Vineland, NJ, ella encontró que su
mayor barrera para encontrar un
empleo estable era que nunca recibió
un diploma de escuela secundaria. Ella
se matriculó rápidamente en
Literacy4Jersey, y completó más de 62
horas de educación antes de tomar su
examen para el GED. Ella se enfrentó
a situaciones de inestabilidad
significativas durante el programa,
pero algo que permaneció constante
fue su deseo de ser una buena modelo
a seguir para sus niños. Nakiesha se
sentaba todas las noches con sus niños
para hacer sus asignaciones y llegó a
celebrar su graduación cuando su hija
cumplió 13 años.

a salud y la fuerza de un vecindario se miden por el compromiso y la
participación de sus residentes, propietarios de negocios y los socios de
la comunidad.
PathStone cree que los vecindarios vibrantes son aquellos donde los residentes: tienen acceso a vivienda segura y
costeable, pueden ser capaces de realizar todo su potencial económico y personal y reciben bienes y servicios de
calidad. Los vecindarios de elección son lugares donde los individuos y familias desean sentar una base, hacer
conexiones y dar de sí.
Una de las maneras más obvias como PathStone crea comunidades donde los residentes desean permanecer es a
través de los servicios proporcionados a los residentes que viven en algunas de las propiedades. Los servicios a los
residentes incluyen intercesión, traducción/interpretación, navegación de recursos y beneficios, búsqueda de gestión de
casos apropiados, resolución de conflicto, intervención en crisis, administración del hogar, comidas y transportación.
Además, los residentes ofrecen su tiempo voluntariamente para planear eventos especiales y participar en concejos de
residentes para asegurar la salud y estabilidad de sus compañeros residentes.
Además de los servicios proporcionados a los residentes que viven en sus propiedades, PathStone trabaja con las
comunidades para involucrar a los residentes en las actividades y dotarles de un marco para mejorar la calidad de
vida en estos lugares. En dos ciudades de Nueva York- Newburgh y Rochester- esfuerzos de organización de la

Carleen Uimonen, directora del

PathStone Center desesperada por
poder cubrir la brecha en el
financiamiento de la construcción de
un nuevo local. El centro preescolar
ya no cabía en el espacio original y
tenía una lista de espera de más de
50 niños. PathStone pudo financiar
$250K para Candy Apple,
permitiéndoles obtener acceso a los
fondos de subvención necesarios para
la ampliación. En el nuevo local,
Candy Apple puede servir a 30% más
niños, 65% de los cuales vienen de
familias con ingresos bajos. Lo más
emocionante es que Candy Apple
contratará a diez nuevos miembros
del personal para satisfacer las
demandas de la creciente escuela.

na y otra vez vemos familias luchando por mejorar las oportunidades
económicas tanto a través de sus ingresos así como el desarrollo de
bienes. La creación de bienes y la planificación para el futuro es crucial
para los individuos y familias que buscan poder llevar vidas
significativas y productivas.
PathStone orgullosamente trabaja en las comunidades urbanas y
rurales para desarrollar bienes tangibles e intangibles – cuentas de
ahorro, capital de la vivienda, mejor educación y oportunidades de
empleo significativas.
En PathStone, una de las maneras más significativas y tangibles para la

trabaja con los socios de la comunidad, entidades
sin fines de lucro, desarrolladores privados y oficiales
gubernamentales para diseñar y construir vivienda
que es costeable, accesible e integrada a la
comunidad donde se construye.
• Unidades costeables
desarrolladas/rehabilitadas: 246
• Unidades para alquiler reparadas: 3,159
Además, PathStone administra casi 3,000 unidades
de vivienda costeable en más de 70 lugares
diferentes, más de una tercera parte de las mismas
están designadas para ancianos o individuos que
necesitan apoyo adicional. Muchas veces, los
inquilinos que viven en las propiedades de PathStone
buscan mejorar sus bienes personales creando
capital de la vivienda y matriculándose en los
Programas de Titularidad de Hogar de PathStone.
• Graduados de las clases de educación de
Titularidad de Hogar: 789
• Compradores de vivienda por primera vez: 191
Los dueños de vivienda vienen también a PathStone
buscando maneras para mejorar la condición física y
aumentar el valor de sus hogares. En el año fiscal
2012, los participantes recibieron auditorías de
energía gratuitas para sus hogares, ayudando a
mantener sus casas costeables al reducir el consumo
de energía y las facturas mensuales por los servicios
públicos.
• Hogares que recibieron mejoras en la
climatización y energía: 216
• Inversiones en ventanas, puertas, aislamiento,
calafateo, etc.: $611,850
• Hogares rehabilitados: 45 para una inversión
total de $759,494
• Hogares reparados: 325

gastos. La familia se enteró de los
servicios de titularidad de hogar de
PathStone mientras participaba en un
programa de ayuda para el alquiler
de la Sección 8, y rápidamente se
matriculó en un curso y
asesoramiento de titularidad de
hogar. Con la ayuda de PathStone la
pareja mejoró su crédito, ahorró para
el pronto pago y los gastos de cierre y
consiguió un préstamo directo de

través de Facebook (/pathstonecorp), Twitter (@PathStoneCorp), y por supuesto, nuestro sitio web (pathstone.org).
Sin embargo, una de las principales barreras para muchos de los participantes a quienes servimos es que ellos no siempre están
conectados tecnológicamente. Estamos creando formas para cerrar la brecha digital con el fin de conectar a nuestros participantes a
las oportunidades del modo más eficiente y económico posible.
Como se ilustra en este informe, PathStone “se conectó” con miles de individuos y familias en el año fiscal 2012. Nuestros
participantes han experimentado oportunidades emocionantes, desafiantes y que cambian la vida para: crear nuevos bienes
personales y comunitarios, decidir dónde y cómo quieren vivir y recibir recursos educativos y capacitación para mantenerlos durante
todas sus vidas.
Le invitamos para que se una a nosotros mientras buscamos conectarnos con nuestros socios de la comunidad para abogar por
aquellos que se han quedado atrás. Gracias por su apoyo a nuestra misión y trabajo. Nos sentimos profundamente honrados y
agradecidos de estar en asociación con usted.

PathStone proudly works in urban and rural communities to develop both tangible and intangible assets—savings
accounts, home equity, improved education and meaningful employment opportunities.
At PathStone, one of the most significant and tangible ways of building assets is quite literally, through the development
of affordable housing for low-income individuals of all ages and abilities. PathStone’s Real Estate Development staff
works with community partners, non-profits, private developers and government officials to design and build housing
that is affordable, accessible and seamlessly integrated into the community in which it is built.
• Affordable units developed/rehabilitated: 246
• Rental units repaired: 3,159

located on one of Ithaca’s most
bustling corners, the building
beautifully blends traditional and
modern design elements. Once

years. PathStone partnered with
Ithaca Neighborhood Housing
Services on the project to bring the
LEED-certified, environmentally
sustainable project to life.
