Providing a Pathway of Restoration to the Homeless.
Greenwood Pathway House is the only homeless ministry that provides short term housing and trauma-wellness services for men, women and single parents with children in Greenwood and Abbeville counties.
We work to overcome homelessness, one person at a time. Using a wholistic approach, we address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of our clients while connecting them with the resources that they need for stability and self-sufficiency.

On-Campus Programs
Our clients have access to 7 different life skills programs, 6 different work skills programs, and 4 different children's programs that are offered on our campus. These programs help our clients learn new skills and gain valuable experience.
Clients that successfully participate in our on-campus programs become eligible to enroll in the Ready to Work Program at Piedmont Technical College or to participate in our ministry internship program.
Clients who complete these programs are typically hired for higher paying jobs that allow them to afford local housing and earn enough to lift themselves and their families out of poverty.
Trauma Healing Programs
Our Trauma Healing Programs help our clients build a functional life, post trauma, that equips them to overcome homelessness permanently.
Our clients have access to 3 different programs that help them adopt and practice healthy behaviors that support their mental and physical well-being.
What We Do NOT Provide:
- We are NOT a recovery program
- We are NOT a detox facility
- We are NOT a medical facility
- We are NOT a mental health facility
- We do NOT provide childcare
We offer a safe place to stay and the support needed to transition from life on the streets to ongoing self-sufficiency.
