Creative Pathways Residential Supports

Creative Pathways Residential Supports Our mission is to provide personalized pathways to quality living and independence.

Creative Pathways provides in-home and community based supports for individuals with developmental disabilities. Founded in 2015, Creative Pathways began our mission by providing supports to a single individual in Brookfield. Since, we have expanded to providing services individuals in Linn, Charition and Adair counties.. In establishing our agency in north central rural Missouri, we've helped individuals move back to their home region and helped others make our rural area their home. Since our humble beginnings, we've expanded services from Individualized Supported Living to include Host Homes, Supportive Employment and Day Program Service. Creative Pathways has grown through the care that our staff provides and the support of our local community. We look forward to continuing to serve individuals in our community and surrounding area with the intention to provide supports to every individual who may need our help.

Congratulations to Kaleigh, our January Employee of the Month!

This month, Values Visionaries asked the team to nominate someone who represents the word resolute—someone who stays locked in on employment and personal goals while helping individuals continue to move forward.

Kaleigh has been absolutely crushing agency goals that will support our team and the individuals we serve for years to come. She shows up with purpose, consistency, and a can-do attitude that’s contagious. And let’s be real, she can snap anyone out of a sour mood the second she walks in the door.

We are beyond grateful for her leadership, her heart, and the positive energy she brings every single day. We’re lucky to have you, Kaleigh! 🎉💙

We had the BEST time spreading some Christmas cheer with our amazing residential supervisors, employment specialist, and admin team! 🎅🎄💫

It’s honestly crazy (in the best way!) to see how much our team has grown over the past few years. Each person plays such an important role, and we couldn’t do this work without them.

And of course, we love our incredible DSPs just as much! While it’s impossible to have an all-staff party in this field, we’re celebrating with gift deliveries and small moments of appreciation to say thank you for all they do. 🎁✨ We do our best — because they deserve it.

We are beyond thankful for the heart, dedication, and compassion this entire team brings every single day to support the individuals we are so blessed to serve. So grateful. So proud. And feeling very merry this season! ❤️🎄

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), a time to celebrate the contributions of workers with disabilities and to promote inclusive workplaces for all. This month highlights the immense value that individuals with disabilities bring to the workforce, while also raising awareness of the barriers they may face in employment.

At Creative Pathways, we proudly offer waivered employment services focused on helping individuals achieve integrated, competitive wages. From the beginning, we’ve been committed to bringing awareness to our local communities about the importance of inclusive employment.

Individuals with developmental disabilities can and should earn competitive wages just like everyone else. Working in inclusive settings builds friendships, fosters connections, and continues to show the world what is truly possible.

We also understand that not everyone is ready for competitive employment right away. Sheltered workshops and Pre-Vocational Services provide valuable opportunities for individuals to develop skills, gain confidence, and prepare for success in integrated, competitive workplaces when the time is right.

Thank you to all of the employers, team members, employment specialists, and employment coaches who make inclusive employment possible every day. Your dedication helps open doors and change lives.

Four supported individuals from Creative Pathways and Better Days had the incredible opportunity to attend the Missouri Real Voices Real Choices Conference at Margaritaville in Osage Beach, August 24–26, alongside their awesome staff!

Over the three days, they jumped into inspiring workshops on self-advocacy, coping skills, goal-setting, and even using AI as assistive technology. Not only did they gain valuable skills, but they also built new friendships with peers from across the state and reconnected with old friends, too.

Of course, it wasn’t all work; there was plenty of play! From exploring the resort and tasting new restaurants, to playing Bingo, belting out songs at karaoke, and dancing the night away, the group made unforgettable memories.

This experience was nothing short of phenomenal for everyone- staff included! We are beyond grateful for the chance to be part of such an empowering and fun-filled event. Thank you !
