They currently provide more than 600 formerly-homeless Central Florida neighbors with permanent, affordable housing through two apartment complexes - Maxwell Terrace Apartments (3200 W Colonial Dr) and Maxwell Garden Apartments (4049 S.

There are 3 case managed programs at Pathlight HOME: Safe Haven, Homes For New Beginnings, and Restore.
Volunteers are welcome to assist in the outdoor presentation of Maxwell Terrace and Maxwell Gardens. Tasks may include landscaping, outdoor cleaning and/or gardening. Maxwell Terrace specifically has space for a community garden. With the help of a few volunteers we can provide residents with a new hobby and some fresh produce!
