Progressive S.T.E.P.S. of Arizona is a transitional social services provider serving the needs of residents within Maricopa County. Progressive S.T.E.P.S. is an organization that provides transitional housing and life skill training with a holistic approach. Progressive S.T.E.P.S. helps young men, young women, and families who were frequently homeless and have experienced a history of substance and/or mental disorders such as depression.
This program will offer comprehensive services along with long-term transitional housing. All other shelters only offer 30 days or less of housing whereas Progressive S.T.E.P.S. offers up to 18 months of programming. On staff, we will have a chemical dependency counselor, a Mental Health Counselor, and a family reunification counselor to assist clients. The steps include personal development, job search training, substance abuse counseling, interpersonal skills building, community involvement, leisure activities, and independent living skills.
- Life Skills Therapy
- 12-Step Meetings: (Daily 12-Step meetings allow you to connect with others who are going through similar challenges and build the skills needed to maintain sobriety long-term.)
- Peer Support: (Living with others who are also recovering from addiction allows the client to share thoughts, concerns, and needs–and to build relationships that will last after you return home.)
- Job Coaching: (We provide resume and job placement services to encourage and support clients as they move beyond treatment.)
The Market
Progressive S.T.E.P.S. has identified two distinct market segments populations based on age; those who are under 30 and those who are 30 and over. The distinction is important because of the high percentage of clients with children, and those in the younger market segment having far younger children. The under 30 age group is growing annually at 9%, and the 30 and over age group growing at 8%. The two groups respectively have 90,200 and 78,920 potential clients. The overwhelming majority of clients come from lower socio-economic population groups and Progressive S.T.E.P.S. will offer clients many profound benefits.
