Summary
Since opening in February 2025, Next Step Up shelter has helped 304 people—and counting. With a unique pet-friendly kennel housing 26 dogs and 12 cats, they’re removing barriers that keep folks from seeking help. Beyond shelter, they’re turning lives around: 53 households leased housing, 21 found permanent homes in Medina, and 68 guests landed jobs. With an average stay of 33 days and flexible support from case managers, they’re building real stability—one bed, one pet, one life at a time.
