Mission, Vision, Goal & Objective

Turning Point Tahoe creates outdoor recreation and environmental education for people with disabilities in the Truckee / Tahoe area. Our belief is that self confidence is instilled through inspirational examples that emphasize outdoor adventures through activities.

Our mission is to raise the standard of living and change the consciousness of what is possible for persons with disabilities.

Most people with disabilities do not have the opportunity to access the outdoors due to a lack of equipment and fund, thus limiting their ability to fully participate in life. Our objective is to network with existing resources, groups and programs to connect people to information, equipment, activities and programs.

Our goal and overall vision is a world in which all people, regardless of ability, have opportunities to discover, protect and be inspired by the outdoors to live fully.
