PATH Welcomes New Board Member

There were several changes within the PATH leadership in 2023, which left the Board of Directors with three members, Achara Tarfa, David Kerwin and Laura Lively. This small but mighty team has worked to provide Self-leadership for PATH as it navigates changing seasons and also to determine the road ahead for the organization. After many months of service to the executive team and the organization as a whole, the Board of Directors has voted unanimously to add Adrienne Burton as its newest member. Adrienne brings a wealth of experience in organizational leadership, operations, and marketing and communications which have all proven to add value as PATH adapts and charts a course forward. The Board is grateful to have her, and asks that you join us in welcoming her to the team!

Clarifying the Vision and Mission

All healing journeys provide the opportunity to pause and reflect, integrate lessons learned and exercise choice about how to move forward. Following a difficult season last year, the Board of Directors at PATH first took some time to nurture its internal systems and to cultivate healing for the rupture that everyone experienced. And once the Board felt stabilized and resourced, members also took some time to re-evaluate the vision and mission of the organization and determine if it still felt accurate and aligned for who and how we want to be in the world. The goal is to ensure that the vision is inspiring, forward-looking and reflects the world the PATH strives to create, and that the mission clearly articulates what PATH does to achieve that vision. The Board has revised the vision and mission statements to simplify the focus, accomplish the desired goals and speak to PATH’s unwavering commitment to the internal family systems model as a pathway for healing addictions and underlying trauma. We are excited to share the new vision and mission statements and hope that they resonate in your system and clearly communicate the heart and soul of this organization.

PATH VISION: Restore inner harmony and self leadership for people experiencing addiction and underlying trauma.

PATH MISSION: Expand awareness and application of Internal Family Systems (IFS) in compassionate communities where people experiencing addictions and underlying trauma can heal.
