Meet the Founder Clarence Maple, MSW
Clarence Maple is a seasoned mental health professional with over 19 years of experience in the field. He discovered his passion for helping individuals with mental health challenges while working with at-risk youth at Milhous Children’s Services. In 2013, he started working at Telecare and Turning Point Community Programs, where he focused on providing housing for adult males facing mental health issues. His dedication to improving their lives led him to establish Steps to a Better Living in 2016, just two weeks after earning his Master’s in Social Work. That work led Clarence to found STABL Housing, a nonprofit organization which continues to make a significant impact in his community by empowering individuals on their journey to become STABL.
