Our History
Serving Southwest Louisiana since 1975
ETC was founded in 1975 on the basic premise that community involvement and support is essential for resolving community problems. Early in our history, ETC identified troubled youth and their families as an under-served and vulnerable population within our community.
From our humble beginnings, the agency grew steadily through the decades. In 1985, ETC opened Harbour House, The Emergency Shelter for Children,
to fulfill a community need for a safe place for youth in crisis.
Today, ETC offers two Residential Programs, as well as multiple Community Outreach Programs which have a positive impact on our community. Our programs offer hope to families who are struggling with difficult circumstances. Identifying and building upon youth and family strengths, we offer prevention and intervention efforts
to continue our goal of “helping people live better lives”.
There is no financial obligation to clients to participate in any ETC services.
