Empowering Youth. Developing Futures. Youth in need of services in the N/NW Suburbs: message us on this page or text "Shelter" to 77948 for immediate access to a crisis worker. MISSION: The Harbour provides emergency housing and services to youth experiencing homelessness in order to promote safety, stability, and personal growth. The Harbour’s vision is to provide opportunities that guide and empower youth to their fullest potential through safe housing, critical emergency interventions, positive mentoring, and resource services. Stable housing in tandem with educational and vocational support, life skills training, and intensive financial literacy support, coupled with the mentoring and nurturing support of caring adults are hallmarks of each program. Unlike adults, most homeless youth have never lived on their own and typically lack the skills or financial resources to begin living independently and sustain a path to independence and housing stability.
