Everyone Deserves a
Place to Call Home
We walk alongside homeless individuals and families — providing shelter, services, and steady support until they find lasting stability.
We Started Because
No One Should Sleep Outside
In 2006, founder Maria Reyes watched a family shelter under an overpass near her home in downtown. She couldn't look away — and she hasn't stopped working since.
What began as a single warming center in a church basement has grown into a full-service organization serving over 800 individuals and families every year. We believe homelessness isn't a character flaw — it's a housing crisis, and every person experiencing it deserves dignity, stability, and a hand forward.
Every Number Is a Person
Behind every statistic is a family reunited, a child back in school, a person who found their footing again.
Programs Built Around

I came to Harbor Hope with my two kids after leaving a dangerous situation. I didn't have a dollar to my name or a plan. Within three months, they helped me get stable housing, enroll my kids in school, and start a part-time job. A year later, I have my own apartment and a full-time position. I cry thinking about where I could have ended up.
