What happens when one organization becomes the lifeline for countless survivors of domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual assault in Union County? Join us as we uncover the impactful work of Turning Point with Executive Director, Jessie Lindberg. From their 42-bed domestic violence shelter to the Treehouse Children's Advocacy Center and the Sexual Assault Resource Center, Jessie walks us through the vital services offered to survivors and the essential role of community outreach and education in increasing disclosure rates and fostering healthy relationships among teens.

Our conversation also shines a spotlight on the Second Chance Boutique, an upscale thrift store that not only offers high-quality items but also supports Turning Point’s mission through sales and volunteer efforts. Jessie shares the inspiring journey of Turning Point’s evolution from a modest crisis line to a comprehensive 24/7 support facility, underscoring the significance of integrating the Children's Advocacy Center and the Sexual Assault Resource Center into their operations.
