OUR STORY

Safety

Harbor House Domestic Violence Center is a house to call home when home isn’t safe anymore.  It is a port and a harbor, a safe haven for women who have experienced the backlash of a stormy relationship.  It is a refuge and a shelter, a safe house for women and children who have been victimized by domestic violence.

Compassion

At Harbor House, we believe in empowering women to take control of their own lives.  Our compassionate, trained professionals listen to our residents and acknowledge the injustice they have suffered.  We recognize that domestic violence is A CRIME, and NO ONE DESERVES to be abused.

Respect

We tend to the basic needs of our women and children at Harbor House, without judgment and without criticism.  We administer confidentiality and engage our residents in planning for the future and utilizing community resources.  Our staff respects every woman’s right to make her own decisions.

Healing

Harbor House Domestic Violence Center offers a comfortable, much-needed place of rest, a place where the violence stops and the healing begins, a place where women are engaged and empowered through support and advocacy.
