Mission and Program Overview

Mission

STEPS is a program that gives individuals an opportunity for a better life. It was designed to help those who are willing to change, by equipping them with the tools, resources, and encouragement they need. At STEPS, we believe in the dignity and worth of every person. Our job is to locate hindrances, physical or otherwise, that stand between an individual and their success, and help them to rectify those hindrances however possible. STEPS not only looks at the immediate needs of the individual or family, but also at their long term well-being. The aim is to not provide a band-aid, but to provide long term solutions.
