Safe Steps Forward
for Kids & Families

Safe Steps Run Club is a Texas nonprofit focused on proactive family support through movement, wellness, advocacy, community events, and positive connection.

A run club with a bigger purpose.

Safe Steps Run Club was created to build a consistent, welcoming, and uplifting space for children and families before crisis occurs.


Through weekly run club gatherings, future monthly family-centered 5K events, and community partnerships, our goal is to connect families with support, wellness, advocacy, mentorship, athletics, art, and positive resources.


We believe every child deserves safe steps forward.
