Our 2024 Community Impact Report

In its 190 years of operation, Turning Points for Children and our legacy organizations have been committed to one thing: helping children and families in Philadelphia to thrive.

Please take a brief moment to view our 2024 Community Impact Report. We know these results would not be possible without the commitment of our supporters, volunteers, board members, foster care & kinship parents, donors, partner agencies and corporate sponsors. On behalf of the children, youth and families we serve, we thank you for being part of a caring community!
