“35 years in the Antelope Valley. They saw the need for a unique and powerful ministry. A few answered the call to serve the people of our community, Today they have 10 staff members and volunteers serving those in poverty, near poverty and homeless. The need is growing and they need our help. If you are willing go volunteer and see for yourself. It's worth it. Student can also get volunteer hours signed off.”
“Paving the way has helped and assisted me in ways I just couldn't do by myself. I have no family except my mom, and we both have struggled with addiction. I am making grand changes in my choices now, and want to be a better person on this world. They simply helped me with classes to get a career, they helped me with rent, they helped me with a resume, they helped me look for work, they helped me with my break up with my girlfriend even! They show up to work, and are courteous about what people go through. I learned this at paving the way: 1 stick can break if pulled apart. But a bundle of sticks together, good luck. It's ok to ask for help. It's ok to receive help. I got help. It's a goal of mine, through the case management classes they offer AND that I'm doing, to work here or in a similar facility/position, so that I can give back and help those, like myself. If you're doing the right actions, you deserve it. We all do.”

“I stop here and shop when ever I drop my better half off at the beauty shop (she is already beautiful but likes to get her nails painted) for a couple hours. They have a lot of unique items to look at, and the already low prices are augmented by daily sales. Check it out. I think you will like it.”
“The coffee roasted here is probably the best tasting coffee I have ever had the pleasure to experience! Then you add in the origin & mission of this company to it and you have the perfect way to either start a day or just ease that coffee-urge you have down inside yourself.”
“Great customer service. Since the moment I called they were very helpful. The person that helped me today was Veronica, but also came across other staff members that looked like they were ready to help. Thank you for all your help today, Angels sent from heaven!”

“The YMCA is a wonderful place. The staff is friendly, helpfuk, and supportive. I go for the pool. I enjoy the lap pool. There are two pools. The warm pool is part of the 'walking lanes'. In the warm pool hosts swimming lessons, volleyball, families and a parent or grandparent swimming with a child. The lap pool is cooler water that makes a refreshing work out environment.
There is a lot more to do at the Y. They have a child care area. Meeting rooms, teen room, a large array of exercise equipment.
I recommend the clean locker rooms and showers. I recommend the Y.”
“This place has many different departments that work with the community. We currently receive services through their HFA ( Healthy Families ) they have help us with connecting us to community resources for our family. They also help you keep track of your children's milestones and what to expect and help you in many other ways. If your expecting a baby or already have kids get in touch with them see if they can help you. There's many planned events for all families one of our favorites was decorating our van for Halloween they had many prizes and giveaways. We won a gift card to Walmart. ( we love shopping! ) It was supper fun and the boys enjoyed it. Another helpful event is when they do their free diaper and baby wipe drive tru such a big help. I recently saw a flyer for expecting mommy's they are going to have a baby shower for them, Looks like it's going to be fun. If you would like some more information don't hesitate and give them a call. I was also thankful to meet a group of ladies that work at this location of course through zoom they are amazing Ms Sandra, Ms Lucero, Ms Saimi introduced us to an enrichment class that involves other families and we do activities together, listen to stories and of course it also improves our parent skills ( always learning something new ) with our family and children in 2021 and are very please to say they expanded through this year with Ms Marlynne teaching the classes. It's fun to see how our boys are having an amazing time even though it's online via zoom all the material are provided and sometimes you can just be creative an use something you already have at home. It will help them with transitioning into school. I'm really thankful to Ms Irene and glad for the services that she has provided to my family for almost 3 years. Give them a call and find out what program will work best for you or maybe how can they help you.”

“I went in as a walk in. A very patient and kind check in. A very nice person took my vitals and roomed me. I was seen by a resident Doctor who listened and I felt heard. I appreciate everyone at the clinic. Thank you.”
“I absolutely love this place! The staff are awesome and friendly. They have so many resources and want to help. They have a Paid work training program in which I tool part in and it was so worth it. I was sad that my hours ended. I would love the opportunity to work here permanently. They are so understanding, encouraging, and it just feels so rewarding. You gain strength, confidence, and knowledge when you work here. I recommend it to everyone to look into them for something. They usually can help witj something or at least point you in the right direction for sure. Don't let this opportunity pass you by. Please reach out and get connected. I'm sure you'd end up feeling just like me.”
