Emergency Shelter & Transitional Housing for Youth


 
The Harbour nurtures homeless and at-risk youth towards self-sufficiency and success. 
 
 
Offering youth safety today and opportunities for a successful tomorrow
 
 
The Harbour is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization providing emergency shelter, transitional housing, and case management to homeless, locked-out, and runaway youth in the north and northwest suburbs of Chicago. 
 
Each year, 26,000 youth in Illinois will have no place to call home.  While we often think of homelessness as an urban problem, half of these youth are located outside of the city.  
 
Our programs protect youth from homelessness, while helping them achieve their educational and employment goals.  By working to build self-reliance and independence, we keep youth off the street and help them develop into responsible members of the community.
 
We provide safe shelter, educational & employment support, life skills training, counseling, crisis intervention, and services for pregnant and parenting youth through four core programs:
 




 
This house has kept me safe.
This house always has someone home.
This house has staff ready to give a hug on a moment's notice.
This house has taught me cooperation.
This house is safe from the craziness in the world.
This house took me in when my home wasn't safe.
This house has love between its walls, not secrets and pain.
This house saved me.
This house will forever be my home.
 
- Meg Scianna, 2007 Beacon of Success
