2025-2028 Strategic Plan

The Youturn Difference

  • We provide client-centered, individualized services
  • Our programs are community based, flexible and focused on active engagement of youth and families
  • Our dedicated staff provide a single point of access and a comprehensive range of supports
  • Service hours are flexible and include 24/7 on-call support.

Our Approach

Our programs utilize evidence-based and informed approaches grounded in best practice. Youturn services are guided by effective clinical models supporting the best possible outcomes for youth with complex needs.

  • Youth have access to a comprehensive array of services that address their physical, emotional, social and educational needs.
  • Youth receive individualized services in accordance with the unique needs and potentials of each youth, guided by an individualized service plan.
  • Service plans are derived from comprehensive assessments of risk, need, responsivity, and strengths, which, through research have been linked to success in the community.
  • The families and surrogate caregivers of youth are full participants in all aspects of the planning and delivery of services.
  • Youth are provided smooth transitions to the adult service system as they reach maturity
  • Youth receive services that are sensitive and culturally responsive.
  • Programs and services are continuously evaluated assuring accountability for outcomes.

Strategic Priorities

Youturn’s strategic plan will be implemented through three core strategic priorities.  Each priority is accompanied by priority goals and expected results:

  1. We will continue to deliver high-quality, effective and reputable services by sustaining and expanding our infrastructure to meet the evolving needs of youth with complex needs.
  2. We will improve clinical capacity by ensuring staff have the necessary expertise and knowledge to deliver services and evidence-based interventions that lead to better outcomes for youth and families.
  3. We are committed to ensuring that services are informed by standards for excellence, within an organization that fosters a workplace culture prioritizing staff health and wellness.

Our top priority in developing our 2025-2028 strategic plan was a steadfast commitment to working hand in hand with our employees, board of directors, youth, and community partners. Over the next four years, our vision is to create meaningful impact by fostering open communication, sharing diverse perspectives, and co-creating innovative solutions.
