Testimonials
“Harmony House and its outstanding, knowledgeable,
and empathetic staff have given me the time needed to
heal, the resources to recognize and change the cycle.
They have empowered me to find myself once again
and regain my status as a productive citizen. I have been
given shelter, food, clothes and the necessary supplies
to conduct a job search. Honestly, I don’t have adequate
words to express just how important this facility is, not only
to me, but to the many residents who are helped through
your program. Although my gratitude will never be fully
expressed, thank you Harmony House and staff.”
