This organization is a regional, multi-denominational, multi-ethnic nonprofit agency in the San Antonio district of Oakland with a focus on service to children, youth, families and seniors. This 35 year old ministry is characterized by close partnerships with a number of Presbyterian and other churches. These partnerships work in two ways: volunteers from the churches extend the program reach of the paid staff and the volunteers, in turn, gain training in urban and cross-cultural ministry. Key elements of Harbor House’s outreach include youth after school and summer activities, including field trips, development of employability skills, sport activities, Emergency Services which provide groceries and clothing for nearly 1000 adults, Mission Destination trips year-round offering partnering churches a day of service at Harbor House with ministry training, tutoring, ESL training, counseling and chaplain services and a quilting project. Over 3000 people are served each year. The current Executive Director is Kathy Dwyer.
