For the fourth year in a row, Pathway Homes has been named one of the “Best Nonprofits to Work For” by The NonProfit Times. Pathways is ranked sixth in the nation among medium-sized nonprofits, employing 50 to 249 employees, and placed 22nd out of the top 50 nonprofits of all sizes.

The NonProfit Times is the leading business publication for nonprofit management. It produces this annual ranking based on a nationwide survey of nonprofit employees, who are questioned on workplace practices including leadership, planning, work environment, training and development, and job satisfaction.

“Pathway Homes is again thrilled to be recognized as one of the nation’s best nonprofits to work for,” said Dr. Sylisa Lambert-Woodard, Pathways president and CEO. “What is particularly pleasing about this award is that it is based on employee feedback. To be ranked in the top 10 of agencies our size means that our efforts to recruit, train, support, and recognize our staff are truly paying off.

“We absolutely believe that the quality of care provided to those we serve hinges on the excellence of our staff,” she said. “This award demonstrates our commitment to attract and retain the best.”

Other organizations named to the 2015 list Best Nonprofits to Work For include the Wounded Warrior Project and the Alzheimer’s Association, as well as Pathways’ local partner, PRS Inc.
