Safe Harbour provides a continuum of housing services, from temporary shelter to permanent residence, for those who’ve lost their homes due to foreclosure, joblessness, the death of a loved one, mental health, and addiction issues, or a myriad of other circumstances. Temporary shelter includes emergency placement for families and single females who are in desperate need of a secure place to live, in an environment where they can begin rebuilding their lives. Residents are provided with living and recreational space, including a library and computer room for job searches and other internet communications. Life skills classes for women and men are provided to improve their success after their stay at Safe Harbour, with topics ranging from budgeting to conflict resolution. Additionally, a parenting support group offers education and assistance with basic parenting skills. We are governed by an independent board and funded by donations from individuals, organizations, and churches. Resources are also gained through fees paid by some residents, commercial rents, investments, foundations, federal and state grants, and the United Way.

We were happy to host an open house for our friends at First Evangelical Lutheran Church this past Sunday. Their generosity in donating the property that we now call Harbour House has resulted in three units of affordable housing. Many thanks also go to The Tuckey Companies who completed the renovations. #affordablehousing
A monumental day for Safe Harbour as we celebrated the (near) completion of Harbour Village. The first residents are expected to move in by mid-December and it will be fully leased by early 2025! Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate this milestone in Safe Harbour's history. We're proud to be bringing high quality affordable housing for our community.

Take a closer look at Harbour Village!
We hosted a site tour of Harbour Village, a beautiful 40-unit affordable housing community nearing completion in Cumberland County, spanning 7 buildings. With pedestrian walkways, connections to neighboring services, a pavilion, and a playground with sidewalks and walking trails, this community provides safe and stable housing for families. Hear from Scott K. Shewell, President & CEO of Safe Harbour, Inc. on the progress, expected move in date and importance of building to improve lives in our community!
