Empowering our Sky Valley Neighbors with advocacy, help, and hope

Family Resource Center

Take the Next Step was created to provide a reliable list of available resources for our neighbors in need. In 2005, the Next Step was just one huge three-ring notebook.

We chose our name carefully. The heart of our purpose is to form enduring, respectful relationships, and to help our program participants take their own next steps.

We promise you will always be welcome.
