Solid support across our community
At Turning Point, we see far beyond a client’s diagnosis and therapy. We aim to help all improve the overall quality of their lives, including the lives of those who live, love, or work with them, and by extension the life of our community.
Rarely can we do it all alone.
That’s why we constantly seek to expand our clients’ range of recovery options through collaborations and complementary relationships with other trusted experts and providers in areas like primary healthcare, psychiatry, substance use programs, job placement, food pantries, and shelter.
