Viri Salgado

Client Information Specialist at the SD Regional Center

Path-Now is a valuable tool that enhances independence and self-advocacy. It empowers individuals to take control, search, learn, and safely connect with providers, making essential information accessible to the entire community.

Marissa Chavez

Executive Director at GiGi’s Playhouse San Diego

I recommend other service providers to be on Path-Now. It provides that one-stop shop for a client participant or an individual to find services readily available that suits their needs. So it’s very individualistic and also person-centered.
