About Us
In 1947, in the shadow of World War II, loving Christian men and women saw the need for a children’s home in Northeast Oklahoma. Father’s had died or been severely disabled in the war. Many single mothers were struggling to survive both emotionally and financially, and in many cases were unable to provide for their children in the way that was needed. So loving people did what loving people will always do: they chose to act.
This legacy continues today. Over the years, the campus of the children’s home moved from Turley to Claremore. But the hearts of all involved stayed exactly where it was: focused on the lives of children and the needs of families facing pain, loss, and desperation. Today, Hope Harbor provides on-site services for at-risk teens through is Children’s Home and Academy. In addition, off-site Christian counseling and parent training services are provided. Parent training workshops are not only offered in church and community settings, but are taken into prison settings to reach out to incarcerated mothers and fathers. Many programs. One purpose. To change the lives of children and families in need.
On this web-site you will be able to find more detail about each program. We hope these pages, filled with information, will be helpful. But we also know that reading information on a page is not always enough, especially if you are overwhelmed with concerns about your own child or family. Please know that you can call us if you need more information. We are here to help in any way we can.
