Shaping the Future

Pathways is constantly venturing into new territory. In doing so we are challenged and inspired to see ourselves through fresh eyes; to reflect, challenge and reinvent.

Pathways’ outcomes-focused approach is reflective of people’s growing expectation that mental health services must be responsive, innovative and flexible. One size does not fit all, and is not an acceptable approach.

It’s about asking people what they want from us, discovering their aspirations and supporting them to make them a reality. Goals are personal, inherently special and come in all shapes and sizes. A house, a job and having a valued place in society are just some of the aspirations we hear about.

Inspire wellness

Pathways appraoch is outlined in Inspire Wellness. That direction has come from the people that use our services, Pathways staff and examples of best practice from around the world.

We know that the mental health sector has come a long way, but there are still many challenges and opportunities for development that lie ahead. Pathways will continue striving for our dream of creating mental health and wellness opportunities that enable people to live their dreams.

Our plan for 2008-2010 is built around four stepping stones:

• Embracing real people
• Building strong foundations
• Being our best
• New oceans
