4) Northway Farms is a powerful community of survivors, volunteers, and friends working side by side to promote economic growth & end the cycles of violence, homelessness, & exploitation that keep poverty in place in Brazos County. With 27% of our population living below the federal poverty line, and over 800 children currently homeless, we must engage the fight against poverty in a new way for the sake of our future generations. The Northway model offers a sustainable & groundbreaking plan to release families from poverty, empower them to live independent of government aid, and bring sustainable economic growth to Bryan/College Station. Our dream is to decrease the poverty population of Brazos County by half by 2025. We are excited to invite you to take part in this exciting, new opportunity to cultivate community!
