Steppers work hard to polish their life skills and contribute to society as part of our nation’s great workforce, and we nurture their journey through two key areas: employment assistance and supportive employment.
Employment Assistance
Stepping Stones Achievement Center works closely with Steppers to help them build their resumes, identify employment opportunities aligned with their abilities and obtain basic training to enter the workforce.
We’ve fostered strong working relationships with several widely recognized brands that have welcomed us into their stores to learn the benefits of hiring employees with developmental disabilities. Among them are Lowes, Walmart, Kroger, H-E-B, and Walgreens. There, our Steppers have volunteered and simultaneously gained vocational skills by greeting guests, rolling silverware, restocking shelves, and shredding documents.
Many of these volunteer activities lead to employment opportunities. As a result, Steppers realize their ability to earn a paycheck and be contributors in larger communities outside their homes and our facilities.
