Hope Harbor Charity Profile
Hope Harbor restores the hope of at risk children and youth who, although academically capable, are doing poorly at school and at home. Since 1947, Hope Harbor has improved the lives of and provided hope for thousands of young people and their families. Hope Harbor is licensed by the Oklahoma Department of Human Services for residential care, group care and child placement (foster care and adoption.)
Today, more than ever, young people face seemingly insurmountable challenges. Youth must plan for tomorrow's success rather than merely living for today. That is the goal of the individualized programs of Hope Harbor.
Through Hope Harbor's preeminent alternative school and other programs, students who have previously struggled in school acquire a solid education. They experience the rewards of hard work and helping others. They develop good study habits, gain confidence and assume responsibility. These attributes are promoted daily so that they become a part of the student's character.
