Our Mission

Our mission is to provide a fun, inclusive environment rich in sensory motor activities to allow neuro diverse children to improve motor ability, foster trust, improve relationships, develop social interaction, and build a sense of community.

Diversity is our strength.

Your experience is unique, and your perspective matters. Every person involved with Empowering Steps brings a distinctive value to the program and has an equal opportunity for growth. We celebrate the individuality of our participants and staff, and are committed to including and uplifting each other collaboratively with sensitivity and respect.

Here you will be supported not only through an interdisciplinary learning and therapy experience, but by the inclusive, shared environment and community that has grown with it.

We respectfully and humbly acknowledge that Empowering Steps, Club Aviva, and the Symington Symbiotic Foundation operate on the unceded ancestral lands of the kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem), səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), Kwantlen, and SEMYOME (Semiahmoo) Nations.
