Recently, our Daniel's Place location received an extremely generous 200+ pound clothing donation from GUESS, and we're at a loss for words!

Keep watching for highlights of the team unpacking the drop-off and sharing the wealth with our members, and join us in thanking GUESS in the comments below👇 #clothingdonation #recentdonation #GUESS #GUESSclothing #nonprofitdonation #communitysupport #supportthecommunity #endinghomelessness #localnonprofit #california #losangeles #localcommunity #communityinvolvement #endhomelessness

At Step Up, we recognize that many of the struggles that accompany homelessness do not disappear the second a member finds a housing solution, which is why we are dedicated to providing members with additional supportive services🤝 Regardless of the dollar amount contributed, your donation is used to help provide life-saving permanent supportive housing and comprehensive wraparound services.

Meet James, a member of the Step Up community👋 Despite his business’s success, in 2020, something happened that James never expected - the COVID-19 pandemic. Like countless other people across the world, James' life drastically changed amid the outbreak, and his life as he once knew it quickly vanished. Because of the incredible contributions from our generous donors, volunteers, and dedicated team, in December of 2022, Step Up opened a new permanent supportive housing development in James' community, and he finally caught the break he needed.

This month recognizes the unique mental health challenges faced by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. These communities often experience systemic barriers to care. At Step Up, we believe mental wellness should be accessible to everyone. While our services are open to all, we’re proud that our member population includes substantial representation from BIPOC communities. This reflects our ongoing commitment to addressing long-standing inequities in access to care. By offering person-centered, culturally responsive mental health services, we’re working to ensure that every individual has the support they need to heal and thrive. #BIPOCMentalHealthMonth #MentalHealthEquity #StepUpForMentalHealth #WellnessForAll #MentalHealthAwareness

This 4th of July, while many are celebrating with friends and family, we pause to reflect on the deeper meaning of freedom and connection. At Step Up, we know that for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness and serious mental health conditions, reunification and personal independence are hard-won milestones, not guarantees. As you spend time with your family and friends today, we invite you to think about those who can’t. Your support helps bring people one step closer to stable housing, restored relationships, and renewed hope. Together, we can help more people find their way home. #FourthofJuly #IndependenceDay #JulyFourth
