OUR focus

Turning Point is here to help to break the cycle of poverty, mass incarceration, homelessness, and mental health disparities.

Turning Point works closely with the reentry population who have been impacted by the criminal justice system. We assist formerly incarcerated individuals and the homeless population by providing temporary and permanent housing support, mental health services, drug and alcohol education, parenting skills, anger management and domestic violence classes.

We care for people!

Self-Sufficient

The key focus of Turning Point’s Re-Entry Program is to help people who have been recently released from incarceration.

Mental Health

Turning Point Mental Health specializes in individual, family and group counseling.

Community

Community is the family that goes beyond family. It is the people and places that we come in contact with each and every day. When we strengthen communities, we strengthen individuals.

Our

Programs

Turning Point Programs and Services

Our programs help clients reshape their beliefs and attitudes, and control their impulses, thoughts, and behaviors. Our therapists, substance abuse counselors, community health workers and Intensive case managers provide culturally appropriate counseling to clients.

Re-Entry Program

Turning Point’s Re-Entry Program utilizes an evidence-based collaborative whole person care model to help people who have been recently released from incarceration to successfully

transition back into the community as productive members.

Turning Point Community Health Workers assist program participants with compassionate case management, vocational and

educational training, assistance with job placement, housing support, and other supportive service linkages.

Turning Point understands from first-hand experience that community safety is achieved when we choose to care about every vulnerable member in our community.

Mental Health

Turning Point’s mental health program utilizes evidence-based practices to empower community members of all ages in the management of the unique mental health challenges they may face.

Turning Point’s goal is not merely to assess, and treat clients’ symptoms, but to equip them with the tools necessary to achieve meaningful lives and relationships.

Housing Team

Turning Point Women’s Re-Entry Program offers housing to women who are transitioning back into society and have no where else to turn to.

Even while in custody, women with upcoming release dates can contact us to begin developing individualized service plans that will serve as a personal framework for rehabilitation upon their release.

We have empathetic case managers with lived experience who offers a strength-based, need-driven approach, collaborating with women residents to help them achieve stability, safety, and other positive goals on the road to successful independence.
