Most of what’s known about where the Turpin children are now comes from a few recent interviews and news investigations, and a lot of the details are sealed for their protection.

Quick Scoop: where are all the Turpin children?

  • The 13 Turpin siblings were rescued from their parents’ home in Perris, California, in 2018 after years of extreme abuse.
  • After rescue, the younger children were placed into foster care in California, while the older ones went into supervised independent or group living situations.
  • Today, they are spread across different locations in California , living mostly in apartments, group homes, or foster/relative placements, rather than together in one place.
  • Their exact addresses and day‑to‑day locations are confidential because they are protected abuse survivors, and courts have placed strict limits on what can be publicly revealed.

What’s publicly known about specific siblings

A few of the siblings have chosen to speak publicly as adults, so we know more about them than the others.

  1. Jordan Turpin (the sibling who escaped and called 911)
    • Jordan has talked about her life in interviews (including with Diane Sawyer and People). She lives independently, has pets (dogs and guinea pigs), and is focused on healing and mental health, including therapy and building a support system.
 * She’s active on social media and has built a public profile, but still keeps her exact location private for safety.
  1. Jennifer Turpin
    • Jennifer has also spoken out in TV interviews. She lives on her own, works, and has talked about learning basic life skills as an adult after being deprived of them for so long.
 * She has described being grateful for simple freedoms like walking outside or listening to music, and she focuses on building an independent life.
  1. James, Julissa, and Jolinda Turpin
    • These three younger siblings, who were placed in foster care, are now in their late teens to mid‑20s and have recently spoken publicly as well.
 * They have shared that the foster home some of them were placed in turned out to be abusive, and the foster parents were later criminally sentenced on child abuse charges.

 * As young adults, they are also in more independent or transitional living situations, still dealing with the fallout of both their original abuse and the failed protection afterward.

For the other siblings , their identities, locations, and personal details are mostly sealed and intentionally kept out of public view to protect their privacy as they try to rebuild their lives.

Life after rescue: how are they actually doing?

Reality for the Turpin children has been more complicated and darker than many people expected after the rescue.

  • Broken promises and hardship
    • Investigations showed that some of the adult siblings ended up “living in squalor” in crime‑ridden neighborhoods , struggling to access education funds and basic support that had been promised to them.
* Some relied on couch‑surfing and experienced homelessness or assault, despite there being donations and public funds supposedly set aside for them.
  • Foster care failures
    • Several of the younger Turpins spent years in a foster home where there were serious abuse allegations; one foster family (the Olguins) later faced charges and sentences related to abuse of children in their care, including at least one Turpin child.
* This added an extra layer of trauma after everything they had already survived in their parents’ home.
  • Healing and rebuilding
    • Some siblings have talked about therapy, learning about mental health, and trying to understand why their trauma affects them the way it does.
* They’re working on education, jobs, and basic adult skills that most people learn as kids—things like using money, cooking, or navigating public spaces.

A key point: they’re not living a “fairy‑tale rescue” life. Several have openly said that freedom is better than their old life, but it has been very hard, confusing, and at times unsafe.

Why you can’t get a neat “where are they now” list

When people search “where are all the Turpin children ,” they often hope for a clear rundown—who lives where, with whom, doing what. The reality:

  • Legal protection and sealed records
    • Because the Turpin children are abuse survivors, courts and child‑protection systems have placed heavy confidentiality rules on their names, locations, and care arrangements.
* Many details about where each sibling lives, what school they attend, or who they live with are not public by design.
  • Media only shows the ones who consent
    • The siblings you see in interviews (Jordan, Jennifer, James, Julissa, Jolinda) are the ones who chose to step into the public eye.
* The rest have stayed private, which is generally considered the healthiest option for traumatized survivors if they want it.
  • Constant relocation and change
    • Some siblings have been moved multiple times between foster homes, group homes, and independent housing, so even when a story describes where they are, it can change within a year or two.

So the honest answer is: we know a little about a few of them from their own words , and almost nothing specific about the others—on purpose, to protect them.

Forum / trending angle & bottom note

This case keeps resurfacing as a trending topic —especially when new interviews drop—because people are still wrestling with how a family could be hidden like that and how the system could fail even after rescue.

“You’d think once they got out, everything would finally be okay. But it feels like the system hurt them all over again.” — common sentiment in true‑crime forums.

If you’re following this as a forum or true‑crime discussion topic, a respectful stance is to remember that every “update” is about real people still actively recovering, and many of them never chose public attention. TL;DR:
All 13 Turpin children survived and were removed from their parents in 2018; some now live independently as young adults, some went through abusive foster homes, and several have spoken publicly about both trauma and ongoing healing. Their precise locations are intentionally confidential, and the public only knows limited details about a few siblings who chose to share their stories.
