Turning Point Society

This Friday, June 5th, we are joining the Salvation Army at the Mustard Seed and handing out FREE donuts. We'll be set up at 1 p.m. and there until the donuts are gone. We hope to see you!

Without our drop-in space, our services are primarily delivered through mobile backpack outreach. Our DayReach program started in late 2025 and over the months of its operation we have refined its delivery model as we receive feedback from clients, staff, and the community. As with any new program, we will continue to adapt to meet the needs of the community.

Today, DayReach focuses primarily on basic needs and is identified by a purple backpack. We know how much time and effort it takes to survive when you are living without stable housing, food, safety and resources. Addressing basic needs for vulnerable persons increases their capacity to tackle bigger picture goals. Staff go out to hand out snacks, hygiene supplies, clothing, and naloxone, and come equipped to help clients with referrals and any necessary follow-up care. Staff are trained in basic first aid and can help folks get medical care for injuries or wounds they come across that need more attention.

DayReach has partnered with the Salvation Army to provide services at their downtown location every Thursday afternoon from 1pm to 4pm, which has created more opportunity for clients to access services as they know where they can find us.
