Awareness

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. At STEPS, Inc., we stand with survivors and believe in creating safe, supportive communities where everyone can thrive.

This month, and every month, we are committed to raising awareness, supporting prevention efforts, and ensuring individuals and families know they are not alone.

If you or someone you know needs support, help is available through Madeline’s House and other local resources. 💜

Together, we can continue to listen, learn, and work toward a safer future for all.

FYI

Each year, communities across the nation conduct a one-night Point-in-Time (PIT) Count of people experiencing homelessness. This count helps determine federal funding for local homeless programs, plan services based on community needs, measure progress in reducing homelessness, and identify strengths and gaps in the current homelessness assistance system.

This year, our Point-in-Time Count will take place on Thursday, January 28th, 2026. Anyone who is homeless on this night with no place to stay should be counted and offered help.

At any time, whether on the night of the count or at any point during the year, individuals experiencing homelessness can call the STEPS Homeless Housing Line at 1-855-955-5501 for assistance with emergency shelter. Our region includes Amelia, Buckingham, Cumberland, Lunenburg, Nottoway, and Prince Edward Counties.

If you are experiencing homelessness and need help, call 1-855-955-5501.
