IT’S TIME TO

KNOW US

IN LOVE WITH HELPING YOU

At Turning Corners, our approach is two-fold. First, we've embraced a comprehensive wrap-around support model to ensure our beneficiaries receive holistic care and guidance. But we didn't stop there. We firmly believe in the power of co-creation, which is why we've curated a menu of services designed and developed by the very individuals whose lives have been transformed through our programs.

The Heart Behind The Hurt

We want everyone to feel loved, cared for, and respected. People who appear to have socially unacceptable or dangerous habits are often just in need of understanding. Behind their behaviors, there is a distressed individual calling for compassion and assistance.

This initiative provides both immediate help in cases of crisis, as well as preventive measures. We offer wrap-around support for families affected by severe mental illness and dysfunction, including awareness, counseling, case management, skills development, and peer support.

We target the underlying hurt—the open, infected wound that keeps causing inflammation and pain—in order to address the root hurt and stop the family's cycle of crises.

Safe Places; Breathing Spaces

Hearing the soothing sound of waves, smelling the fresh scent of salt in the air, and feeling sand between your toes can be an instant stress-buster. The serenity of the natural environment can help you to reset your mindset and feel a sense of tranquility. Taking a reprieve from stressors and triggers further puts us in a recovery framework. Mindfulness workshops, yoga, and fulfilling yet strenuous outdoor sports further complement the reduction of stress and release of feel-good hormones.

We facilitate nature day trips called "Breathing Space Days" for adults and children, and "Sea`ing the Blue; Heals the blue" overnight retreats specifically for young people and younger adults with depression.

Please request a referral form if this could help you or someone you care about.

Supports young carers who have parents or siblings with complex mental health needs; to look after themselves so that they have a healthier and vibrant childhood and don`t operate on an overdraft `bank account.`

Weekly peer support group meetings help break up the loneliness, day trips provide simple youthful fun, and workshops teach how to overcome codependency and link up to available support networks.

Because addiction is so commonly co-morbid with complex mental illness and hijacks families and relationships, our new initiative, "Parental Power," is a byproduct of this program.

It supports parents and spouses of addicts in making their homes a safe zone for themselves and other family members and makes local, non-12-step groups accessible to non-English-speaking families.

It also ensures that Young Carers do not fall into addiction patterns.

Caring for Young Carers

Nourish Nest

Through our pop-up `shops` and parcel deliveries, we have delivered over 600 tins of baby formula to financially deprived mothers.

Mothers who are breastfeeding often have reservations about taking medications prescribed by their psychiatrists as they may be incompatible with nursing and formula is costly to purchase. Proper treatment makes them even better mothers and our formula delivery directly enables these mothers to focus on their mental health recovery.

The cost of living crises has exacerbated our user’s mental health challenges, and this formula service, alongside, food parcels and hygiene basics hampers continue to bring immense relief.
Please request a referral form if this offer could help you.

​Mind Your Own Business offers long term financial independence to break the food poverty patterns and dependency on regular food parcels.
