A Therapeutic Workplace

Our Approach

We work exclusively with men leaving prison who are likely to return without an intense intervention and wraparound support. The typical Turn90 man was arrested as a youth which began his cycle of justice involvement: jail – prison – probation - repeat. Making a deep investment in a person’s emotional, social, behavioral and financial well-being provides the skills to manage life differently, a pathway to legal employment, and an offramp from the incarceration cycle.

Furman University’s Riley Institute gives Turn90 the

2024 OneSouthCarolina Partners in Progress Award in recognition of a landmark collaborative achievement

towards social and economic progress in South Carolina.

Slide 2

Before I came to Turn90 I’d almost lost hope. Now I’m learning things I wish someone taught me when I was younger – like how to think in the right way and brainstorm before making a decision.

Turn90 is the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time.

Slide 3

Turn90 was selected from among 6,353 applications from all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico to receive a $2M gift from Yield Giving

in support of our work with people and in places experiencing the greatest need in the United States.

Slide 4

One person who leaves prison and doesn’t go back is a win.

Hundreds of thousands of people who never return is a game-changer in the effort to reform our criminal justice system.
