Stepping Stones Transitional Living Center

Our Services

The purpose of the Transitional Living Center (Stepping Stones) is to provide short-term (30-90 days) housing for an individual coming out of placement, homelessness, or hospitalization who needs to redevelop skills to be successful in the community.  Additionally, Stepping Stones will assist members in securing Social Security benefits, employment, Medicaid services as well as any other medical or any desired services as well as assist in placement or relocation in the area they desire to live in.

Individuals who are living with mental health or disabilities will be paired with a variety of service providers to assist them in reaching their highest levels of independence with the focus of reintegrating into the community of their choice.  Basic necessities are provided for those who may enter without them, room and board are provided as well as having house responsibilities assigned to all who live there.

Families, caregivers, guardians, caseworkers, and other agencies should contact Deidra Brown at 712-263-6141 or dbrown@wescoind.org if they are interested in having WESCO provide services or would like to request a tour or additional information. For more information on funding options, please contact the Finance Director, Donna Schurke, at 712-263-6141 or by email.

They can't tell you when you start this job there may come a time where you find you're more comfortable surrounded by people with developmental disabilities than when you are with the general population. But it happens. - WESCO Industries Employee
