A Closer Look, Austin 2Gen Coalition

1:30 PM to 2:30 PM

Family Pathways is the pillar of United Way for Greater Austin that focuses on Financial Stability for Families. We utilize the 2-Gen approach which disrupts the cycle of intergenerational poverty by intentionally linking services for parents and their children. By focusing on education, social capital, health, and financial security for the whole family, United Way and the Austin/Travis County 2-Gen coalition are working to create a social services ecosystem that promotes economic mobility for generations to come.
