Our Impact
For our interdependent IDD Community that feels undervalued by the status quo and a deep sense of FOMO (Fear of Missing Opportunities), Path-Now is the Wayfinder of our collective resources.
(with 10,000 connections & growing!)
Together, we provide limitless empowerment for our IDD Community, and unlock a world of possibilities.
“I think it’s important for individuals to use Path-Now because it’s a very useful tool that will enhance independence skills and self-advocacy skills. With Path-Now every individual that is interested in services can take control and initiative to search, learn and connect with the providers and professionals in a safe manner. Path-Now makes the important information more accessible for everyone in the community.”
Viri Salgado
Client Information Specialist and Advocate at San Diego Regional Center
“I like Path-Now. It really allows me to connect with the community, answer any questions, provide services, and it bridges that gap of communication to connect with the community at a bigger scale all in a click of a button.”
Daisy Bracamontes
CEO at Social Impact Services
“I recommend other service providers to be on Path-Now. It provides that one-stop shop for a client participant or an individual to find services readily available that suits their needs. So it’s very individualistic and also person-centered.”
Marissa Chavez
Executive Director at GiGi’s Playhouse San Diego
“Path-Now, we needed you yesterday! When we first heard about this new resource, we were almost stunned to realize its potential. At its best, the app bridges the gap between the unknown and the known and cuts through months of research self-advocates and parents have done on the journey to resources for optimal quality of life. We found several options for our son on Day One. Looking forward to continued participation!”
