Turning Point Child and Youth (TPCY) provides intensive, community- and family-based wraparound services for high-need children and young adults ages 6 to 21 residing in San Mateo County. The program is structured to support youth who are impacted by severe emotional and behavioral challenges at risk of psychiatric hospitalization or higher levels of out-of-home care and their families. Turning Point is also meant to serve youth transitioning back into the community from more restrictive placements.
Turning Point is well suited for youth and families with complex behavioral health and system-involvement needs—when traditional outpatient or school-based resources are not sufficient to maintain stability in the least restrictive setting. The program’s wraparound and multidisciplinary approach prioritizes safety, resilience, and sustainable community integration.
