History
TURN was founded as Mental Health Systems, Inc. (MHS) in 1978 as a single psychiatric day treatment center for adults in North San Diego County. Since then, we have expanded our reach throughout the state to eliminate healthcare disparities and shore up gaps for underserved populations facing behavioral health challenges.
TURN provides integrated services along the continuum of care from prevention to intervention, treatment and successful recovery and stabilization. We support clientele across the spectrum, from those with mild symptoms to the severely mentally ill to those with substance use disorders to co-occurring disorders. Our clientele includes adults, children, and families, including the homeless and veterans. TURN combines services with supportive housing wherever possible.
We match the level of care we provide to each client’s individual needs.
