Turning Point Of Central California Inc.

Turning Point Of Central California Inc. is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Visalia, California, that has been registered in the System for Award Management since November 2003. The organization specializes in providing comprehensive social services and rehabilitation programming for vulnerable populations, with particular expertise in serving federal offenders transitioning back into their communities. Turning Point delivers a broad spectrum of services including substance use treatment, mental health counseling, residential reentry programs, and housing assistance, positioning itself as a significant provider of reentry and homelessness intervention services in central California's rural communities.

Through federal contract awards, Turning Point has demonstrated extensive capability in delivering reentry and treatment services to the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons. The organization has received multiple delivery orders valued cumulatively at over $6.9 million since 2021, structured as firm fixed-price awards with no set-aside designations. These contracts encompass residential reentry center operations, home confinement program support, cognitive behavioral treatment services, substance use treatment, and mental health counseling in the Fresno and Visalia, California areas. Notable recent awards include an $453,908 delivery order issued on August 1, 2025, for residential reentry and home confinement services extending through July 31, 2026, and a $102,404.35 delivery order covering October 1, 2025, through April 30, 2026, representing option year four of an underlying task order vehicle. All contract awards have been issued by the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Central Office, with Turning Point serving as the prime contractor without identified subcontractors. The organization has held multiple indefinite delivery vehicle contracts totaling over $14.6 million for similar rehabilitation services, demonstrating an established and sustained relationship with the federal government in the corrections and reentry services sector.

Turning Point's federal grant portfolio reflects a strong commitment to addressing homelessness and expanding telemedicine access in rural areas. The organization has received substantial funding through the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care Program, with recent grants awarded in 2025 including $941,288, $247,007, $570,935, and $1,190,555 for permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homelessness prevention activities in the Visalia area.

Grant awards consistently support case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment, job training, and housing assistance designed to promote housing stability and self-sufficiency among homeless individuals and families. Turning Point has maintained continuous CoC grant funding dating back to at least 2021, reflecting consistent federal investment in the organization's homelessness intervention capabilities.

Turning Point holds two active indefinite delivery vehicle contracts with the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons. The primary IDV, valued at $756,494.62, was awarded on May 1, 2021, and extends through April 30, 2026, for the provision of substance use and mental health treatment services in Fresno, California. This single-award contract operates under firm fixed-price delivery order arrangements, and since its establishment, Turning Point has received nine delivery orders ranging from approximately $6,402 to $102,404 to support federal offender rehabilitation and reentry objectives. Services delivered under this vehicle include individual and group counseling, psychiatric evaluations, medication management, crisis intervention, and supportive services for federal inmates transitioning back into their communities.

Additionally, Turning Point operates a separate larger IDV valued at approximately $13.94 million that provides residential reentry center and home confinement services throughout California's Eastern District, for which the organization has received multiple substantial task orders extending through July 2025 and beyond. Together, these two IDVs demonstrate the Bureau of Prisons' reliance on Turning Point as a critical partner for delivering comprehensive rehabilitation programming and facilitating successful community reintegration of federal offenders across California.
