Who We Are

First Steps is a statewide initiative that brings public and private support together to help prepare young children to start school ready to learn. Signed into law in June 1999, First Steps works through county volunteer boards representing all facets of the community. This process ensures that decisions are made locally in response to specific community conditions.

The goal is Lexington County First Steps is to ensure that every family in Lexington County has access to the culturally appropriate, coordinated and comprehensive parenting and family services that are necessary to assure child readiness to learn by first grade.
