STEP

The St. Louis Park Emergency Program (STEP) began in 1975, first meeting at Wooddale Lutheran Church. Sue Nelson was the first director, first serving as a volunteer. 1975 was also the year that Brookside was decommissioned as an elementary school, and STEP became one of the first tenants of the community center.

After many years at Brookside, the building was sold and STEP was moved into temporary quarters on Highway 7 by the City.
