Harmony House is a transitional housing program with the primary goal of helping families move from homelessness to permanent housing and from dependency to self- sufficiency.  With the capacity to house 102 families in individual apartment units and host of on-site social services,  Harmony House provides much more than a shelter.  It offers stability to families facing seemly insurmountable barriers and enables them to restore their lives.
