Overview

Mission

Next step pregnancy and relationship center exists to encourage and equip women and men to build successful families.

What it reported doing in 2025

Reproduction loss and early infant loss and healing: we offer resources and support for anyone who has experienced loss due to ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, stillbirth, sids or early infant death. Some resources are books, videos, peer-counseling, and a memorial garden dedicated to infants lost during pregancy or shortly thereafter. We hold an annual wave of light event where we commenmorate the end of baby loss awareness week. We also host an 8 week self study for women seeking healing after an abortion. We serviced 27 clients with these services in 2025.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
