Pathlight HOME, founded in 1992, is Florida’s first and largest provider of the proven Housing First permanent supportive housing model. They currently provide more than 600 formerly-homeless Central Florida neighbors with permanent, affordable housing through two apartment complexes - Maxwell Terrace Apartments (2803 W. Arlington St.) and Maxwell Garden Apartments (4049 S. Orange Blossom Trail). Both locations include efficiency units and supportive services programs for adults who are chronically homeless, as well as units for those imminently homelessness. There are 3 case managed programs at Pathlight HOME: Safe Haven, Homes For New Beginnings, and Restore.
We are looking for 2-3 volunteers who are available twice a month to facilitate an art lesson (of their creative choosing) for our program residents. The first Tuesday of each month would take place at our Maxwell Terrace Apartments. The fourth Tuesday of the month would take place at our Maxwell Garden Apartments.
Artistic teaching background preferred.
