Good afternoon,
I wanted to take a moment to share some exciting developments at **Turning Point Sober Living and Transitional Housing, Inc.** here in Miami, Oklahoma.
Since opening our doors in 2023, we have provided safe, structured housing to **more than 125 individuals** working to rebuild their lives. Many have successfully returned home to their families, while others have begun independent new journeys. Along the way, we’ve helped **12 individuals obtain their driver’s licenses**, including one client who had been suspended for 34 years—removing a major barrier to employment and independence.
I am currently working with **The Fletcher Group (Kentucky, USA) ** to become a certified **Employment Coach**. This will allow us to build strong relationships with local employers and provide them with a **dependable, job-ready workforce**. In collaboration with **Workforce Oklahoma**, we will also address one of the greatest challenges in rural communities**transportation**by helping individuals get to and from work consistently.
Looking ahead to **2026**, we are launching a **12-week Adult Education and Workforce Development Program** in partnership with **Northeastern Tech in Afton, Oklahoma**. This program will combine:
* Substance abuse recovery support
* Life skills development
* Career and technical training
* Job placement in high-demand fields such as **welding and heavy equipment operation*
Through partnerships with the **Good Neighbor Coalition**, **Good Neighbor Project**, and **Workforce Oklahoma**, we can cover training, transportation, and food costs. However, we are seeking support to help bridge remaining gaps—specifically:
* **Housing costs during training**
* Essential work equipment such as:
* Safety-toe boots
* Welding gloves
* Eye protection
* Safety vests and work gloves
Your support would directly impact on individuals who are motivated, committed, and ready to work—while also strengthening the local workforce and economy.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about our mission. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can partner together to create lasting change. Pleas visit our website at www.tpslmiamiok.com We accept donations via PayPal, GoFundMe, and Venmo.
Sincerely,
Terry A. Wilson
