Stepping Stone Emergency Housing
A Homeless Shelter Working To End Homelessness
Stepping Stone Emergency Housing is a one-of-a-kind shelter that’s working to break the cycle of homelessness.
We’re more than “just” a place to sleep for the night. We’re a temporary, but short-term home for 66 men and women ages 18+. That means we’re here 24/7 with a bed to call your own, three meals a day, plus laundry and showers.
But that’s not all — and here’s what really makes Stepping Stone unique.
We work with residents one-on-one to create an individualized plan to help them move from homelessness to self-sufficiency. We provide a variety of on-site supports — from classes on topics like financial literacy and job interview skills to weekly medical appointments and more — to help residents take steps toward independence with dignity and compassion.
Stepping Stone is the only homeless shelter serving youth and adults in the five-county area of Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Scott and Washington counties. Learn more about how to Get Involved or How to Get Help.

“We may not be able to repair what does not want to be fixed, but we can cause a breakthrough, an opening for more compassion, understanding, and change.”
