Turning Afternoons into an Adventure!

A free after-school program for kids from Kindergarten to Twelfth grade, right here in the Ocala National Forest. We're all about boosting education and making sure every child feels great! Our focus is mainly on math and reading, but we also dive into subjects like science that kids often find tricky.

Each day, kids will get help with their homework, enjoy some tasty snacks, and have a safe, welcoming place to be. Plus, being part of Turning Point comes with awesome perks: free summer camp at Camp Sozo, Christmas gifts and a holiday meal, a backpack filled with school supplies, and new shoes and clothes at the start of the school year and whenever we can throughout the year.

Safety is our top priority, so all our volunteers pass a level II FBI background check. Want to join the fun and make a difference? Head over to our "Get Involved" tab for more info on how to become a volunteer!
