VitalPath Initiative is a mission-driven organization committed to strengthening private and public education by providing high-quality, trauma-informed programming and essential resources.

Our Mission

A stylized illustration of a hand holding the Earth, with the continents of North and South America visible, against a black background.

We exist to bridge gaps in access, equity, and opportunity, empowering schools, educators, and students through innovative, holistic support that includes academic enrichment, wellness education, career readiness, and emergency preparedness.

Our work is rooted in community, driven by compassion, and fueled by a vision to disrupt cycles of educational inequity and uplift the next generation of leaders.

Our Leadership

“I’m ready to see what Cleveland truly has to offer its children. I’m ready to see the magic of learning light a fire in our youth and watch them grow up to change the world.”


Creating a plan designed for your school community…

At VitalPath Initiative, we partner with companies and organizations across the Cleveland and Akron areas to bring you customized programming that meets your schools unique needs!

Created from an administrators perspective, our programs are designed to lighten your load because we understand the many hats you wear. We make essential resources readily available and even assist with funding request submissions, saving you valuable time.

We believe in you…

At VitalPath Initiative, we believe in you—your vision, your mission, and the incredible work you’re doing.

That’s why we actively pursue grants and philanthropic support to offset program costs and ensure equitable access to our services. Through this effort, we’re able to offer many of our high-quality programs at discounted rates, and in some cases, completely free of charge.

If your school or organization serves a student population where 75% or more identify as low-income, we invite you to apply for our VitalPath Equity Access Sponsorship using the application below.
