Turning Point appreciates computer grant

BRATTLEBORO — We at Turning Point are very grateful to Entergy for a recent grant of $500 to help our recovery center upgrade some very outdated computer equipment.

Having this technology available to support the center's work is essential to our mission of serving the recovering community, people who are often in transition. Our computers are used by our office assistant, who tracks our data and handles administrative needs; our volunteer coordinator, who handles time sheets, human resources matters; and for promotional work (such as our Facebook page).

Our recovery coaching team members use the computers to enter data and to find resources for the people they coach. Our guests use the computers to work on resumes, submit online job applications, research job leads or other needed resources, do homework, and stay in touch with family and friends.

Turning Point of Windham County provides free services to people in recovery from addictions. The center is a safe, supportive gathering place that provides peer support and recovery support services.
