“I had lived in poverty all my life, living paycheck to paycheck. I was struggling to pay the bills and I couldn’t get out of the rut I was in. Since joining STEPMC, I have completely cleared off my debt, am 75% through a bachelor’s in business degree, received a promotion at work, and I’ve learned how to deal with stress and create solutions to problems that arise. I still have a ways to go, but I’m no longer stuck!”
