![]()
Autumn arrived last week and the nights are already longer and colder. At its new facility on 3 Viking Drive in Wareham, Turning Point is getting ready for winter and the struggles that accompany those who are either homeless or threatened with homelessness in the south coast area. Additional volunteers are being trained to assist clients in accessing helpful resources, according to Turning Point’s Executive Director Shirley Santos. While currently planning for supportive holiday events, an autumn fundraising appeal is underway to introduce past Turning Point donors and contributors to recent activities and the new facility. “We’re also updating our contact list”, Santos adds, “and we want to acknowledge and express our gratitude to those who have supported us in the past”. The Wareham Area Committee for the Homeless, (WACH), doing business as Turning Point, is entirely dependent on grants and donations to provide services, as well as its volunteer staff. For more information or to donate, please contact www.turningpointwareham.org, or find them on Facebook.![]()
