Mission Statement
Turning Point provides crisis intervention services to victims of domestic abuse and offers violence prevention education in Union and surrounding counties.
Turning Point of South Arkansas was founded in 1983 and received its nonprofit status in 1984. At its beginning, four women shared a vision for south Arkansas; to provide victims of domestic violence with a safe place to stay and help lessen the burden of their suffering. That vision turned into reality and in 2004, an emergency shelter offering temporary housing for victims of abuse was opened. Since then, Turning Point of South Arkansas has grown into a comprehensive and vital program, serving all people in need, regardless of age, race, gender, religious affiliation, and socioeconomic status.
Turning Point provides crisis intervention services to victims of domestic abuse and offers violence prevention education in Union and surrounding counties.
Our goal is to provide a safe haven for victims by offering physical and emotional support, while working to prevent and reduce all forms of violence in South Arkansas.
