Step's mission is to support individuals in the pursuit of their chosen goals and the achievement of personal satisfaction in their lives.  STEP offers a variety of services to persons with developmental disabilities, including supports coordination with a growing emphasis on self-determination, skills training, and integrated employment.  Daily living skills are taught both at the in-house day program and in community settings.  Each Resource Center offers a workshop program, with the exception of the Livonia site, where the emphasis is on community-based experiences.  STEP emphasizes community employment opportunities.

Persons interested in individual placements, supervised group employment or the development of self-employment can contact STEP at 313-563-2641, or visit them online at www.stepcentral.org.
