Where Purpose Meets Opportunity
Strides is the nonprofit arm of STIR, created to walk alongside teens and young adults with developmental differences as they transition into adulthood.
Through mentorship, skills training, and community-based experiences, Strides empowers individuals to build confidence, discover purpose, and take meaningful steps toward independence. Join us today in our mission to create inclusive pathways for growth, connection, and opportunity.
Our Why
At Strides, we believe every young adult deserves to live a life filled with purpose, connection, and dignity. We support teens and young adults with developmental differences as they explore their strengths, build daily routines that bring meaning, and discover purpose in all kinds of places, at work, in the community, and within themselves. Every moment matters, and we’re here to walk beside them, helping turn everyday experiences into empowering steps forward.
