What We Do

Our Counselor provides individual and family sessions as well as group counseling covering a variety of topics such as  anger management, communication skills, family issues, responsibility, and goal setting.

Our Case Manager is the liaison to the guardian and referral source. She  schedules and transports youth to appointments and links the child and/or family with community partners for resources and services. 


Youth Care Workers are responsible for the care, welfare, safety, and security of the residents. They model appropriate behaviors and coping strategies, build on youth strengths to enhance their life skills, implement service plan activities, and engage the youth in recreational activities.

WE ARE OPEN!

We are so very excited to announce that our residential building for Harbour House has finally reopened! It has been a very slow process of repairing damages since the hurricanes of 2020 and subsequent winter storm in 2021. Due to those weather events, we have operated at a very limited capacity, using an alternate residential site to offer the services we could provide in the interim.


Details coming SOON for our GRAND REOPENING event!

Funding Sources

Harbour House is funded through grants and contracts with the following agencies: 


Calcasieu Parish Police Jury, Office of Juvenile Justice Services


Louisiana State Office of Juvenile Justice


U.S. Administration for Children & Families
