History, Statement of Mission, & Purpose:
Stepping Stones Educational Therapy Center, founded in 1990, is dedicated to laying an educational, emotional, and social foundation in children, birth through fourteen years, with developmental, physical, and intellectual disorders and delays.
Co-founders Bonnie Brown and Saralyn Fountain, tenured teachers in the public school system, recognized that children with special needs who had received early intervention were better able to adapt to the classroom environment, interact with peers, and showed greater promise for mainstreaming into society. The founders took their teacher's retirement and began Stepping Stones with only three children. Today more than 100 children receive educational and therapeutic services and a waiting list continues to grow.
