About Us

           The Mission of Next Steps, Inc.
                         is to bring about
         wholeness and well-being in the
             lives of women and teen girls
                   through inner healing.

                                          Our History:

Next Steps, Inc. was founded in 2003 to educate, equip and empower women and teen
girls with the necessary tools for changing behaviors that lead to issues such as toxic
relationships, low self-esteem and poor decision making.

Studies show that trauma incurred from issues such as domestic violence, drug abuse, low
self-esteem and anger do not end immediately after an individual is removed from the
condition.

Many organizations promote and operate under the guise of a “microwave” recovery and
as a result, patterns of regression and relapse continue to occur. While it is true that we live
in a fast paced society; the reality is there is no such thing as a quick fix.

As creatures of habit, individuals tend to resist change unless it is perceived as being a non-
threatening change. Restoration of any kind occurs over a process of time. After the first
step, there are always Next Steps to be taken.

Next Steps, Inc., subscribes to the premise that permanent change is a gradual process,
which involves nurturing the inner-self and building character and wholeness through
psychological, emotional and self-awareness.

                                    Our Goals:

1. The overall foundational goal is to address core issues. Adverse behavior is generally
    precipitated by unmet needs that tend to barricade healthy growth and development.

2. The desired results of the program is to see clients feeling good about themselves with a
    sense of accomplishment and not falling back into the snare of domestic violence, drug
    abuse, or other unhealthy behaviors.

3. To address basic physical needs of participants (i.e. food, clothing, shelter). Providing
    for participant's basic needs is vital to their overall success in the program.
