Mary's Path

Mary’s Path is the only program in Orange County and one of only three residences in California serving pregnant and parenting teen mothers from the foster care system. Mary’s Path is nationally accredited and fully licensed as a Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program (STRTP) facility for pregnant and parenting youth ages 12 to 21. The newly created position of Director of Individual Giving and Special Events offers an opportunity to make a profound difference in the lives of some of the community’s most vulnerable members.
