Stepping Stone Shelter received a one time allocation from the State of Kansas for much needed infrastructure renovations. This project began in fall of 2025, and the shelter was closed for construction. This project includes (but not limited to) adding more accessible rooms for persons with disabilities and creating a safe and fully functioning commercial kitchen to serve residental clients and visitors to the soup kitchen. 

Please contact the shelter about submitting an employment application for client supervisors. Starting salary is $12 per hour with a $1.00 differential paid for overnight shifts. The positions we have are M-F Afternoon/Evening shift M-F Overnight Shift which are both full time positions. We also have Saturday/Sunday Day and Night Shifts which are part time positions. The weekend shifts will be 12hrs each. Please stop by 304 N Lincoln from 8am - 3pm M-F to pick up an application or call the Shelter to make an appointment. 620-626-6024
