Stepping Out - Semi Independent Living
What does it do?
Stepping Out provides comprehensive semi-independent living services. Our projects are all located close to transport links and local amenities and are staffed up to 24 hours a day offering a high level, structured and supervised group living arrangement.
The provisions are ideal for those whom display challenging behaviour, Sexually Harmful Behaviour, Drug & alcohol abuse, sexualised behaviour, self-harm, suicidal tendencies, learning disabilities, aspergers syndrome and other high support need conditions.
We understand that for most 16 - 18 year olds, the transition from care to full independence can be difficult. Stepping Out can help bridge that gap by working with the young person to build on their strengths and abilities.
