"The heart of a volunteer is not
measured in size, but by the depth
of the commitment to make a
difference in the lives of others."

-DeAnn Hollis

Volunteer & Intern Program

 

Volunteers and Interns are an integral part of Turning Point's staff. Last year alone, volunteers contributed a total of 22,722 hours to the agency, saving Turning Point approximately $410,132 in staff salaries and benefits.

 

Turning Point actively recruits interns each semester from Colorado State University and other local colleges and educational institutions. Internships are offered for university credit as well as for Certified Addiction Counselor documented work experience hours.

 

We know that your time is precious and we know how valuable a few hours of your time can be to a child. You can make a difference in a child's life with just a few hours a week.

 

Turning Point actively recruits qualified unpaid staff to fill administrative positions, work with youth in the milieu or classroom, provide additional services to assist with substance abuse and behavioral health treatment, act as mentors, and help with community transitioning and life skills development.
