To serve this older youth/young adult population, the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board launched the Turning Point program with multi-year grant funding from the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services. T
Turning Point provides a way to intervene rapidly after a first episode of psychosis, and to provide wraparound services for the young person with the goal of getting them re-engaged in the community and less dependent on a service system. The early intervention program helps the young people and their families understand and manage symptoms of mental illness and/or substance use disorder, while also building skills and supports that allow them to be successful in work, school, and life in general.
