Our Mission
Turning Point for Women and Families’ mission is to help Muslim women and girls affected by domestic violence to empower themselves and transform their own lives as well as those of their families. Turning Point provides a diversified range of culturally competent services focused on safety and self-sufficiency through direct services, advocacy and referrals. Deeply rooted in the Muslim community, Turning Point believes that social change can be effected by raising awareness about the prevalence and effects of domestic violence, addressing it directly and offering safe spaces and opportunities for youth development.
Our Vision
Turning Point believes that every woman and girl deserve to live a life with dignity and free of violence.

Do you or someone you know need support dealing with custody and visitation challenges? The QLS Domestic Violence Family Law Advocacy Project is hosting a Teach-In Teach-Out on Custody Issues in the Presence of Domestic Violence. Topics include: understanding the court's best interest of the child analysis; naming challenges of co-parenting with a controlling ex-partner; psychological manipulations, parental alienation and other coercive tactics; and strategies for identifying and minimizing manipulation. This is a great event for DV survivors to find the resources and support they need pertaining to custody issues. Please sign up for the virtual session on March 27th at https://form.jotform.com/240704512447148 or email qls-family@lsnyc.org to register for the in-person session on April 3rd. _________________________ #DomesticAbuseSupport #womensmarch #womeninspiringwomen #NYC #mentalhealth #TPNY #Muslim #domesticabuseawareness #TurningPointNY #community #womenshistorymonth #inspire
