The Harbor’s mission is to provide advocacy, prevention and support while promoting self-determination and hope for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking.
The Harbor provides its services completely free and confidentially and has been engaged in this important work for 40 years. What began in 1976 as a group of women and phone line has evolved into a thriving non-profit at the forefront of providing culturally responsive services. We provide services to residents of Clatsop County, and surrounding areas, over the age of 15, and provide referral to those under 15. Roughly 5% of Clatsop County residents utilize our services each year.
Our staff members are committed to self-determination and believe that you are the expert of your own needs. We are ready to listen to each individual’s story and help them navigate to a place of safety.
Through partnerships in the local area, and across Oregon, we are committed to protecting survivors. Our goal is to break the cycle of violence through education, one on one support, practical assistance and referrals.
The Harbor is a community based non-profit and offers assistance at all stages of your process from initial conversations and safety planning with advocates, medical and legal advocacy, to helping with emergency shelter. Drop by our advocacy center for more information or give us a call 24/7 on our crisis line.
