   About Us

Welcome to STEP2

STEP2, a private non-profit, is the only treatment program in Northern Nevada and one of the few in the country that accommodates women with children. STEP2 provides:

compassionate, flexible, individualized treatment programs for women in a safe environment, respecting the client and her personal treatment needs and utilizing current addiction and mental health protocols.

Our treatment center empowers each client to succeed and become a productive member of society while supporting and encouraging her recovery. Since many clients are suffering from poverty in addition to chemical addiction, no woman is ever turned away because of her inability to pay for treatment.

Our Mission

STEP2 is a comprehensive substance abuse treatment program that provides women and their children suffering from chemical addiction, poverty and domestic violence the opportunity to rebuild their lives. The result is self-sufficient healthy families.

Understanding the Program

STEP2 is happy to boast a 63% success rate for our women battling chemical dependency compared to the national average of 17%. People often wonder why women suffering from chemical addiction can’t simply clean up, get a job, and get their lives back on track. STEP2 has prepared the video below in order to help answer your questions and assist people in understanding why our program exits. Please take a moment to watch:
