MISSION OF THE AGENCY
At Ocean's Harbor House, our Mission is to provide safe-haven for runaway, homeless, abandoned, abused and neglected youth, and provide them with the supports and the tools to unlock their potential by learning skills that empower them to build successful lives, relationships, and futures.
Ocean’s Harbor House was founded by concerned community leaders in 1985 to answer the needs of homeless, abandoned and runaway children and youth in crisis at the Jersey Shore, with a vision to create a safe space where these youth could go to be free from danger and victimization. Since then, we have grown from an emergency shelter to a multi-service organization. Through our Residential Programs and Healing Harbor Services, we address the complex issues faced by those young in 3 areas:
- We provide shelter and housing for youth who are homeless
- We provide counseling and case management for youth in crisis and their families.
- We provide training and education on Human Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation
Residential Programs: Emergency Youth Shelter is a 12 bed, 30-day facility accessible 24/7 and open to homeless, runaway and abandoned youth ages 10-19, regardless of geographic origin.
Supervised Transitional Living Program is a 12 bed, 18-month group home setting providing educational and vocational counseling and services to homeless, runaway and abandoned youth, ages 16-21 regardless of geographic origin.
Healing Harbor Services: Family Crisis Intervention Unit (FCIU) is a state mandated program offering free case management, family engagement and crisis counseling service to Ocean County Youth up to 18 years old.
Sexual Exploitation of Children : Our trained team provides groups and workshops, using evidence-based curricula, to schools and other providers to create awareness and give young people the tools to defend themselves to build healthy relationships.
Youth Groups: We offer a variety of group sessions to youth ages 10 to 18 and their families.
