About us

At Harbor House Ministries we believe in living abundantly; living life to the full! That means we strive to support each person as they work to realize their goals and dreams. Founded by families of adults with profound impairments, we understand that family members can be the best advocates for any individual. We work hard to maintain an atmosphere where family is valued and welcome all of the time. We seek not to replace, but to partner with an individual’s family in providing the best care and most enriching community life possible.
