The Path to Success Starts Here

Stepping Stones to Self-Sufficiency

Our programs work together to strengthen every aspect of work and family life, from education and employment to parenting and planning ahead. Staff coordinate services and programs across the following area to create a foundation for success and continue to support families when they move out of the Shelter to ensure access to the programs, services and resources they need and prevent their return to homelessness.

We are committed to running these programs as efficiently as possible, so our funds and donations make the most impact possible.  

“With everything I learned at the shelter, I have opened up a savings account and have been saving for quite a while. Not to mention I have a steady flow of income and my job is going great!” – Tasha
