Today we invited staff and community partners to join us for a highly anticipated announcement!

We knew that picking a new name for an 100+ year organization wouldn't be easy. The committee asked for input on this decision and our community delivered! We received over 200 suggestions and are excited to announce that we’ll be entering this next chapter as the Greater Columbus Community House.

The sign outside of our building may be changing, but our mission will always remain the same. We’re here to strengthen families and empower our community, and we’re honored to continue carrying out that mission under our new name.

While looking forward to the future, it’s important that we honor and preserve our rich history. We look forward to weaving that history into our capital campaign building renovations.

Keep an eye out for an official ceremony and celebration in the coming months!

A huge thank you to everyone that came out last night to support Bright Night 2026! With your support, we raised over $18,000 for the "Greatest Need Fund" at SSCH.

We can't wait to do it all again next year! Thanks for having us Natalie's- you're the best!

✨ Feel Good Friday ✨

We had the coolest invite last week - students at Galloway Ridge Intermediate asked us to come in for a Q&A! 👏💡

They wanted to learn more about what St. Stephen’s does in our community - & how we show up in the work of combating racism right here at home.
We left feeling hopeful. These kids are paying attention. 💛

Shoutout to See Kids Dream Directions for Youth & Families for creating space for students across Franklin County to have these honest conversations!

Our Early Learning Center kiddos learned about important Black historical figures through paint on their hands, songs in their hearts, and lots of curious questions! 🎨🎶

It’s never too early to celebrate the leaders who paved the way 🖤
