Our History
Turning Point Community Services Inc. is a community-based, non-profit organization committed to providing secure housing and supportive services to underserved minorities.
Our vision and goals commit us to assisting those in need to become self-sufficient by helping them to break the cycles of substance and/or alcohol abuse, economic insecurity, food insecurity, mental health issues, domestic violence, and in some cases incarceration.
We look to provide safe and secure housing options, which include emergency and permanent supportive housing programs; develop and implement programs that help to address the underlying causes of homelessness and abuse; and more importantly, we promote the well-being and wholeness of all individuals that we serve.
Our Core Values
SUPPORT
Helping women and children in need, no matter their circumstance.
HUMANITY
Reassuring them that they will not walk the journey alone.
PASSION
Believing in what we do and looking forward to what we will become.
