InStepp, Inc. Making a Difference

As a community change agent, InStepp, Inc. transforms women and adolescent girls who have found themselves in less than desirable life circumstances, by building their talent through innovative gender-responsive training, educational and prevention programs. This is a huge boost for the communities in the Triangle area when these adult women and young girls succeed. Those who can’t get their lives back together are at risk of ending up in prison, with taxpayers footing the bill to the tune of $23,876 per inmate, on average, per year.

Our gender-responsive programs and services help women and girls rise above the odds to succeed in the world of work, and in all aspects of their lives. This, in turn, helps our communities thrive through empowered women that are caring, giving workers, family members and citizens.

We also advocate for public policy changes that will improve the quality of life of at-risk women within these communities, by participating in coalitions, grassroots organizing and messaging campaigns aimed at educating and engaging the public around issues that impact the quality of life of our client populations.

We invite you to assist us in our mission by volunteering your time to the organization or through an in-kind or monetary tax-exempt contribution.
