Promoting the healthy development of
children and families on the North Olympic
Peninsula by building family strengths!

First Step proudly serves families across Clallam and Jefferson Counties.

First Step is committed to helping
children thrive.

Our team of educators, advocates and coordinators walk beside families, supporting them, providing resources and celebrating with them as their children grow.

As our community evolves,
so do we.

Since 1972, First Step Family Support Center has worked for and with families in Clallam County and has now expanded to Jefferson County.

We actively evolve our services as the needs of the community and the families we serve change. Today, the relevance and importance of family support is stronger than ever.
