Stepping Stones has given Matt many of the ingredients he needs to find his pathway to independence.

Participant Matt has a deep love for many things. Family. Holidays. Vacations. Celebrating birthdays. Singing hymns in church. The Bengals and Reds. Eating at restaurants. Taking walks. Volunteering. And coming to Stepping Stones. Those are the things that feed his heart and soul. Matt started attending programming at Stepping Stones in 2010, beginning with overnight respite program at Camp Allyn. He remains active in that and also attends the Adult Day program at the Parkcrest Campus.

His parents, Margie and Tom, say that Matt is very comfortable at Stepping Stones. For them, the programs provide important daily structure and a social outlet. Stepping Stones has given Matt many of the ingredients he needs to find his pathway to independence. Participating in the respite and day programs have helped him to develop computer skills, learn how to wait his turn and even manage his money.

Stepping Stones is grateful to play a part in feeding the heart and souls of the hundreds of participants served annually in our programs.
