Our Vision For Harbor Homes Center
In March 2026 Harbor Homes closed on the purchase of a new property which will secure a permanent home for our winter overnight shelter and expand year-round services for our Island's unhoused residents. The Harbor Homes Center is envisioned as a safe haven that ensures everyone who walks through its doors feels respected, valued, and hopeful for the future. As a winter shelter and educational hub, it will provide not only a roof over island resident’s heads during the cold months, but also a place where individuals can find solace, community, and the resources necessary to rebuild their lives.
A huge thank you to donors, partners and community collaborators for the purchase of 515 Edgartown Road in Vineyard Haven. A new building is a labor of love for the organization, your continued support will allow them to provide uninterrupted services to those in need.
Services Offered
Harbor Homes has offered ESL classes, access to life skills training, and access to health screenings among other valuable resources. Having a permanent, year-round location will allow Harbor Homes to expand these services and hopefully support the island’s unhoused in a more comprehensive way. During spring and summer, the center will offer a variety of workshops and classes that cover essential topics such as financial literacy, job readiness, and personal wellness.
