Who We Are

Parental Pathways to Reunification (PPR) is a nonprofit organization based in Berkeley County, South Carolina, committed to strengthening families involved in the child welfare system. We believe every parent deserves the opportunity to overcome barriers, access resources, and reunite with their children in a safe and stable home. Our team provides advocacy, mentorship, and supportive services that empower parents and caregivers to navigate court and agency requirements, build parenting skills, and access essential resources such as housing, transportation, education, and trauma-informed support. We are guided by the belief that reunification is not just about bringing families back together—it is about equipping parents with the tools and confidence they need to sustain long-term stability, reduce foster care re-entry, and create brighter futures for their children.

What We Do

At Parental Pathways to Reunification, we provide parents and caregivers involved in the child welfare system with the support, resources, and guidance they need to reunite with their children and maintain family stability. Our services include: Case Management & Advocacy – Helping parents navigate DSS, court requirements, and community systems. Parenting Education & Coaching – Strengthening parenting skills and family relationships. Mentorship & Peer Support – Connecting parents with trained mentors who understand their challenges. Visitation Support & Coaching – Encouraging healthy parent-child interactions during the reunification process. Resource Navigation – Linking families to housing, employment, transportation, education, and mental health services. System Advocacy – Partnering with agencies, courts, and community organizations to reduce barriers to reunification. By walking alongside families, we aim to reduce foster care re-entry, promote lasting reunification, and build stronger, more resilient communities. Parental Pathways to Reunification (PPR) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting parents and caregivers involved in the child welfare system as they work toward reunifying with their children. We recognize that families often face significant barriers—such as housing instability, lack of transportation, limited income, and unaddressed trauma—that can make meeting reunification requirements challenging. At PPR, we walk alongside families by providing advocacy, mentorship, and accessible resources to help them overcome these barriers and create safe, stable homes. Our services include case management, parenting education and coaching, peer support groups, referrals to community resources, visitation support, and assistance navigating the court and child welfare systems. Our mission is to empower parents, strengthen family relationships, and reduce foster care re-entry by ensuring that reunification is not only achieved, but also sustained. We believe that when parents are equipped with the tools, skills, and support they need, children thrive and families remain whole.
