Why Harbor Light
The Salvation Army’s Harbor Light Center is a comprehensive residential treatment facility that can accommodate up to 120 men at a time. In addition to providing a safe and structured environment, Harbor Light offers a range of support services, including educational classes, job-readiness training, and transitional living assistance. Staff members are specifically trained to also help participants secure employment, ensuring they have the resources and skills to rebuild their lives. Nearly all residents are from our 4-state area, but anyone from the US can come and receive free treatment here.

Spiritual Growth and Program Success
A unique and powerful aspect of Harbor Light is its emphasis on spiritual growth, which is credited with the program’s consistently high success rates. Last year, 59 men graduated from the Harbor Light program, with 86% of those graduates maintaining sobriety, stability, and other positive outcomes 90 days after completing the program. This faith-based approach, coupled with evidence-based treatment methods, fosters a supportive community that addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of each participant.

Continuum of Care
Harbor Light Centers often provide a continuum of care to address the various stages of recovery. This may include:
Outpatient and Aftercare: Follow-up counseling, support groups, and referral services to ensure sustained progress beyond the residential phase.
Transitional and Permanent Housing Assistance: Guidance and resources to secure stable housing as participants move toward independence.

Holistic Support Services
Beyond addiction treatment, Harbor Light strives to meet a broad range of needs:
Life Skills Training: Classes in budgeting, conflict resolution, and parenting.
Family Reunification: Counseling and support groups to help mend relationships affected by substance abuse.
Community Partnerships: Collaborations with local businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies to maximize employment opportunities and community integration.

Why Harbor Light Works
Harbor Light’s faith-based framework and holistic treatment model combine to create an environment of accountability, compassion, and hope. By integrating spiritual development, life skills training, and professional counseling, participants are empowered to overcome substance abuse, address underlying issues, and transition to stable, productive lives.

Overall, Harbor Light stands out for its commitment to each individual’s long-term success, offering not just treatment but a path to renewed purpose and self-sufficiency.
