Since 2001 a group of people from Vineyard Community Church (VCC) wanting to put their faith in action, began serving the residents of a low-income apartment community in Lynnwood, Washington. VCC funded and staffed annual Christmas parties, Thanksgiving dinners and “back to school supply” giveaways as well as other service activities. From this group, Turning Point was formed into a non-profit organization to strengthen families and individuals through education, coaching, and care.

Vision
All families in Shoreline, North King and South Snohomish counties have access to social services which provide systems and care for healthy families and healthy communities.

Mission
Our mission is to strengthen families and individuals through education, coaching, and care by partnering with the community to break cycles of poverty in North King and South Snohomish counties.
