The mission of Along The Way is to provide community, acceptance, and hope to women along life's journey. They strive to uplift and empower women to succeed in their careers and further their education by providing much-needed services for low-income single mothers. Their flagship service is free and very low-cost in-home childcare, based on income. In addition, they provide holistic support services such as: free legal consultation, resource coordination for community members, holistic whole family case management, employment referrals, evidence-based parent education groups, discount car mechanic rates, and a car purchase program.
Through GEEP. Along the Way hopes that the learning cohort, as well as funding for further operation, helps them maintain and further develop empathy. They hope to develop further partnerships with women-centered organizations and, through these, find ideas to grow their comprehensive care as a coordinated effort. Along the Way hopes their gender equity practices can be refined from the learnings of others, so that they can discover how to mobilize their gender equity practice in coordinated unison.
