Founded by Porshá Toney in 2020, Next Steps provides resources, support, and education to the members of our community in need. Through our outreach program, we are able to provide access to basic necessities such as food and clothing, as well as assistance with job searches and housing applications. At Next Steps, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to live with dignity and purpose. We strive to give those in our community the tools and resources to get back on their feet and start a new path.

Memphis has been nationally recognized as a leader in efforts to meet the needs of individuals who are experiencing homelessness. While we're making progress, Next Steps is aware there is still work to do to end homelessness in Memphis. We partner with local organizations and businesses to provide resources, food, and essentially hope those experiencing homelessness.

We want you to know we have your back.
