No one should have to sit at home, unengaged and uninvolved in the world around them. Yet for many adults with developmental disabilities, isolation and lack of opportunity remain daily challenges. Too often, they are left on the sidelines — wanting to contribute, connect, and belong, but without the right support to make that possible.

At Creative Steps, we’re more than a day program - our purpose is to help individuals with moderate to severe developmental disabilities live a full, meaningful life. Creative Steps offers a 1:1 ratio of coach to client support. Why do we do this? Because it works! This level of support is what many adults with moderate to severe developmental disabilities need to thrive, and we have developed an innovative, individualized approach to meet this need.

As a result, it’s no wonder that we have a long waiting list of individuals and families looking to join our program. But movement off our waiting list has been a very long journey for so many, because the need in the community outpaces the funding we receive.

On Giving Tuesday, we’re embarking on our end-of-year fundraising campaign with an exciting goal: to expand our program so we can support more clients and reach more people who need support!
