Turning Point is a free after school program for children Kindergarten through Twelfth grade and has dedicated themselves to the education and well-being of the children in the Ocala National Forest. Children will receive homework help and tutoring that is focused mostly on math and reading, but will also include subjects that are a common struggle with students, such as science. These children will be provided a safe shelter and a snack/meal each day during the program. Through this program, each child will also receive free summer camp at Camp Sozo, Christmas gifts and meal, a backpack full of school supplies and new shoes, clothes and underwear at the start of the new school year and throughout the year as available. All volunteers undergo a level II FBI background check for the safety of our children. To become a volunteer, please see our "Get Involved" tab for more information.
