PATH (Planning Alternative Tomorrows with Hope)
PATH (Planning Alternative Tomorrows with Hope) is a person-centered planning approach that helps individuals envision their ideal future and identify steps to achieve it. It involves collaborative discussions to explore hopes, strengths, and goals, creating a clear, positive vision of possibilities. By focusing on strengths and aspirations rather than limitations, PATH encourages empowerment, fostering motivation and confidence. It’s widely used in settings like developmental and mental health services to support individuals in developing meaningful life plans that reflect their values and preferences.
