Founded in 1998, HarborCOV provides free services that promote long-term stability for people affected by domestic violence. Services include housing ranging from emergency sheltering to permanent affordable housing for survivors, and community-based supportive services which include a 24-hour hotline; individual and group support services for adults, children, teens and seniors; legal and economic advocacy; and community awareness, education and organizing initiatives. Taking a comprehensive approach to addressing violence within the context of family, culture and community, HarborCOV specializes in serving survivors who face additional barriers, such as language, culture, age, disability and poverty. Multilingual staff members reflect the diversity of our communities, offering programs created in response to community-defined needs.
