Modernizing the way we serve

Twenty years ago, Steve Butz was a social worker in Baltimore. He did it because he wanted to help people, but found he spent most of his time buried in paperwork. He knew there had to be a better way, and when he saw technology transforming businesses all around him in the 2000 tech boom, he thought that might be the answer. He learned to code, wrote one of the first case-management software packages and started Social Solutions.

90,000 people use Social Solutions technology

In 2001 in Waterloo, Canada, Greg Stanley-Horn worked in a nonprofit struggling with the same challenges. He founded Athena Software, a leading case management company. In 2021, Social Solutions and Athena Software joined forces to accelerate the pace of innovation for the communities they serve. Two decades after it was founded, Social Solutions remains the leading provider of cloud and case management software for nonprofit and public sector social service organizations worldwide.
