We are deeply grateful for the dedicated partners who support our residents on their journey toward healing and reintegration, and we are honored to highlight the generosity of the Tzu Chi Foundation. Members of the Tzu Chi Foundation recently volunteered to donate healthy staple food items to Turning Point. These contributions support not only physical wellness, but also dignity and stability—essential elements in the recovery process. In addition to their generosity, members of the Tzu Chi Foundation joined volunteers from various faith-based organizations who regularly offer spiritual support and encouragement to our residents. These ongoing visits help foster a sense of belonging and community, reminding residents they are not alone as they prepare for life beyond our program. During their first visit, members of the Tzu Chi Foundation spoke with residents about gratitude, contentment, mindfulness, and kindness—values that strongly align with recovery and personal growth. Turning Point is sincerely thankful for the continued involvement of community stakeholders, faith-based groups, organizations, and individuals who volunteer their time each week to uplift and support our residents. A quote commonly attributed to the Buddha beautifully reflects these shared values: “Health is the greatest gift, contentment is the greatest wealth, a trusted friend is the best relative, and a liberated mind is the greatest bliss.” We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Tzu Chi Foundation and all our community partners for helping make recovery at Turning Point a truly community-centered journey. https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/shareyourgifts monthly 0.5 2026-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/66f23dd0-ba59-48e0-8cac-b175d031d4e0/Mrs.+Knight.jpg Blog - The Power of One: Giving Thanks for Community Members Who Share Their Gifts As Thanksgiving reminds us to pause and reflect on the many forms of generosity that shape our community, we are reminded that some of the most meaningful impact comes from individuals who choose to share the gifts they have. One shining example of this is Mrs. Irma Knight-Gumbs. Irma’s gift has always been her passion for dental care and hygiene. Long before her current role with Collection Prevention Services, she built her knowledge working in dental offices and learning firsthand how vital good dental health is to overall well-being. Instead of keeping that expertise confined to her profession, she brings it into the community—into schools, local organizations, and anywhere she’s called to serve. For years, Irma has made Turning Point part of her annual outreach, providing our residents not only with essential hygiene products but also with practical, empowering dental-care education. Her visits aren’t grand gestures; they are simple, thoughtful acts of service rooted in what she knows best. And yet, the impact is powerful. Our residents look forward to her warmth, her wisdom, and the sense of care she brings with every visit. This Thanksgiving, we celebrate Irma—and everyone like her—who uses their own unique skills to enrich our community. She reminds us that you don’t need to have a lot to give a lot. Sometimes, the greatest difference comes from sharing what you already hold: your knowledge, your passion, your time, your heart. https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/thankful-in-recovery monthly 0.5 2025-11-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/b6d9842c-6868-4884-8177-5cba6a7c958f/IMG_7290.jpeg Blog - Sobriety Gives Us Back What Matters Most - “If it wasn’t for my sobriety, I wouldn’t be able to be there for James… and enjoy the marvel of his life and support him in the way that I feel that I can.” — Colin Farrell https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/celebrating-professional-development monthly 0.5 2025-10-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/635b24cd-c1ae-493e-b296-ebe47ee135f6/IMG_6712.jpg Blog - Celebrating Mrs. Natardia Lewis-Barnett’s Achievement in Advanced Training - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/junior-counselor-earns-masters monthly 0.5 2026-03-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/86857e2d-9540-4943-bffc-b3d95553c146/IMG_6408.jpg Blog - Celebrating Excellence: Congratulations to Tyanna Knight, our Junior Counselor on Earning Her Master’s Degree - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/addressing-mental-health-and-suicide-prevention-on-sxm monthly 0.5 2026-03-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/18740c07-6f21-4f5f-be6e-1366c143377c/Dr.+Tasheena+Thomas-Maccow+at+Parliament+3+27+2025.jpg Blog - Addressing Mental Health and Suicide Prevention: A Critical Conversation in St. Maarten - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/closing-january-strong monthly 0.5 2025-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/b3482ff9-d0b4-42af-94a4-ad186388a3c1/1283143634.jpg Blog - Closing January Strong: Staying Committed to Health & Sobriety https://stcosxm.org/blog-stco/congratulations-to-nurse-illidge-on-completing-the-emergency-medical-responder-emr-course monthly 0.5 2024-12-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/56b4e323-f9a6-4e63-8f46-386000e5b81f/dbfd5117-4b30-4f67-8b79-66d9306bc5b2.jpg Blog - Congratulations to Nurse Illidge on Completing the Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) Course!

collaborative process between a therapist and an individual in therapy. People may participate in therapy to inspire change, improve their quality of life, and/or for help with issues that are hard to face alone. Therapy can help people overcome barriers to their well-being. It can increase positive feelings, such as compassion and self-esteem. People in therapy can learn skills for handling challenging circumstances, making healthy decisions, and achieving goals. Many find they enjoy the therapeutic journey of becoming more self-aware. Some people even continue on with therapy long-term for self-growth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/1607886134016-MMD2NR04HL97OK362CTM/iStock-1162213391.jpg Stichting Cooperation - Group Therapy Group therapy can help people improve their mental health. It involves one or more mental health professionals leading two or more people in therapy. Many use it to address a specific mental health concern. The group dynamic often helps people feel supported as they move toward achieving their shared and individual goals. Whether the goal is growth, improving social skills, or something else, group therapy could help achieve it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/c600b545-df88-4073-938d-a7fd7f7df312/IMG_5785.JPG Stichting Cooperation - Family/Co-Dependent Therapy The purpose of family therapy or counseling is to address issues that specifically affect the psychological health of the family. It may be used as the primary mode of treatment or as a complementary approach. Therapy can be beneficial for families who are experiencing stressful events that may strain familial relationships, such as financial hardship, divorce, or the death of a loved one. https://stcosxm.org/mvv daily 0.75 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc9155f3436806905d71816/1608892128631-NHK1SM5PL43LO0FRJ9QY/iStock-1264246859.jpg Mission.
