ABOUT US

Dignity, Respect, a Safe Place to Live

Harbor Homes serves more than 1,000 clients annually, about half are residential. We serve homeless men, women and families, people living with mental illness and veterans (male, female and family members), HIV/AIDS patients and family members, people overcoming substance abuse, low-income individuals and families, and housebound/disabled senior citizens.

Our Mission

To create and provide quality residential and supportive services for individuals, and their families, with mental illness and/or experiencing homelessness.

We offer a variety of residential housing programs with varying degrees of independence to meet the individual needs of residents. Supplementing the housing component, integrated supportive services are based on the individual needs of clients. We also provide non-residential programs designed to empower individuals towards recovery and integration in our community.
