Pathways to Education Canada is a charitable organization that helps youth in low-income communities graduate from high school and successfully transition into post-secondary education or training. Pathways removes systemic barriers to education by providing leadership, expertise, and a community-based program proven to lower dropout rates.

Today, Pathways operates in eleven communities across Canada with programs in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and Manitoba.

Pathways to Education’s core program provides a comprehensive set of academic, social and financial supports to youth.

Working alongside the school system, and through a force of volunteers, the program delivers after-school tutoring, mentoring and financial assistance to overcome the barriers that can stand in the way of education.

The results of this unique program have been ground-breaking, reducing high school dropout rates by more than 70% and increasing the number of youth going on to college or university by over 300%.
