Pathways provides direct services for deaf and hard of hearing adults, children, and their families. We also provide guidance on use of Inter-preter Reimbursement Funds available to Community Mental Health Center’s by the Kentucky Division of Behavioral Health, Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services. Pathways strives to network and work collabora-
