Welcome to PathWays of the River Valley

Recognizing Steve Hammond, Residential Support Professional

We would like to recognize Steve Hammond a long-time employee of Pathways that is retiring after 41 years with the organization.

Steve has only had three jobs his entire life – pumping gas as a teenager through young adulthood, working as an orderly at Mary Hitchcock Hospital and then joining the Upper Valley Training Center in 1984 which later became United Developmental Services (UDS). UDS merged with Developmental Services of Sullivan County in 2006, and the merged agencies became PathWays of the River Valley and Steve came with the merge!

Steve has been an incredible member of our team for over 41 years and we wish him the best on his retirement!
