The Next Step Program

The Next Step Program is the brainchild of James E. Boswell.  At the time as director of Adult and Community Education for Bullitt County, Kentucky

 
 
Families are a very important part of our center, and are always welcome. The Next Step™ is a family based program that assists you in attaining your GED while helping guide and support your entire family as you work together to achieve your own individual family goals! Plus, at The Next Step™ your own personal Family Advocate will be right by your side, whenever you need a guiding hand. It's that personal touch that makes sure you get past those inevitable bumps along the way!
The weekly Family Night meetings are a big part of The Next Step™ program. Here, students come together to participate in a wide variety of family focused activities, aimed at enhancing the overall quality of life for everyone involved. Over the years, students have been involved in workshops on CPR, safe food handling, fire safety, and fun family focused topics such as holiday traditions and family computer classes. We feel it is our duty to our clients to offer them as many tools as possible, to assist them in building their own strong family.
 
 
 

A key component to The Next Step™ program, are the "steps" that each family member works to achieve. Although the step are uniform in design, upon implementation they are custom tailored to suit the individual needs of each family.

These steps allow for small successes building upon each other toward the family's victory. The program steps are broken down into age appropriate categories:

Early Childhood, 7up-Bunch and Adults.
