Hope Harbor

Hope Harbor Children's Home and Family Ministries is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping families restore hope and transform their lives for the better. Our mission is "To restore hope and equip children and families for lives of meaning and purpose". In 1947, the Children's Home was established in Tulsa, Oklahoma in order to extend the... compassion of and hope in Christ to families whose lives were disrupted by World War II. That home evolved into the Turley Children's Home and by 1979, it was decided that an on-site academy was necessary for fulfilling the mission of the Children's Home. The program, which eventually became Hope Harbor Children's Home & Family Ministries, represents an innovative, integrative, and holistic approach to our mission. That mission subsequently generated the Philosophy and Statement of Faith by which are based on Biblical principles and are reflected in all aspects of the program including the on-site school academy, family-style residential program, on-site counseling, and off-site counseling and thrift store. Since its inception in 1947 as the Turley Children's Home, the mission of Hope Harbor Children's Home and Family Ministries has evolved, over-time, with the input of staff, board members, clients, and donors, into its current form. It is considered as a living document, shaped by needs of families, and subject to on-going review and revision.Read More
