The new year begins with a great deal of of optimism at the Pathways Shelter for the Homeless in Yankton.
Pathways Executive Director Jesse Bailey says 2020 was their busiest year ever in many regards.
Bailey says their big project for the new year is a basement renovation at the shelter to provide them more space to serve their clients.
Along with emergency shelter, Pathways provides Rapid Rehousing, Homeless Prevention and Security Deposit Assistance for clients in need.
