Joyce Curran of Brainerd Salvation Army to speak Written By: PineandLakes Echo Journal | 12:00 pm, Feb. 19, 2021 ×
The American Association of University Women will meet online via Zoom at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 20. The program will be “Addressing the Needs of the Homeless Population in Brainerd Lakes.”
Roughly four years ago the Princeton New Pathways Program left Brainerd due to financial hardship. Historically, New Pathways, with the help of local churches and Lutheran Social Services, provided parents and children a place to stay and nutritious meals while they looked for housing and in some cases jobs.
Following the New Pathways closure, local area churches and service organizations formed the Brainerd Area Coalition on Homelessness.
