College Steps operates in the education administration sector, collaborating with colleges, high schools, and families to support students who have social, communication, or learning challenges. Its mission centers on building social, academic, independent living, and career competencies to help students pursue meaningful work and greater autonomy after graduation. Each program is overseen by a full-time coordinator based on campus, with a master's-level educator directing and training a paid cohort of peer mentors. The organization is based in Clarksburg, Maryland, and operates as a nonprofit with programs stretching from Vermont to Virginia. In 2020, Kean University partnered with College Steps on a new program for students with disabilities.
