Steps To Independence, begun in 1998 as Conductive Education of Pittsburgh, is an organization of parents and professionals offering summer and school-year programs for children ages 2 to 21. We are a non-profit project of the Tides Center and a member of the Inter-American Conductive Education Association. Tuition and fundraising efforts support the hiring of experienced conductors and classroom aides, the purchase of supplies and equipment, facility rental, and liability insurance. Most of our administrative work is performed by our volunteers.  Conductive Education is not a “cure” for children with motor disabilities but a reliable method of building independence and functional motor skills. For the past eleven years, Steps To Independence has ensured that this valuable program is available to families in Western Pennsylvania. Steps To Independence is a project of Tides Center.
