Nonprofit Category: L - Housing & Shelter
Exempt Status: 501(c)(3) (IRS Form 990 Filed)

Our programs are designed to meet both adolescent and family needs, ranging from the basics of shelter and safety to the complex longer-term needs of the youth we serve. Turning The Corner operates a 30-day shelter and assessment program, a program for adolescents with developmental disabilities, two programs for adolescent males with abuse reactive issues, and a mental health wellness and recovery program. On any given day we provide as many as 40 youth and their families with a variety of services.

Our treatment population includes a diverse cross-section of youth (including LBGTQ youth) with histories of abuse, neglect and trauma – some with developmental disabilities, complex psychiatric diagnoses, sexual offense charges, substance abuse issues, gang affiliation, and issues of domestic violence. All have parents/caregivers who are unable to provide safety and stability for the youth at the present time.
