Safe Harbor Easton
Needs We Meet
Safe Harbor Easton offers safe, clean, overnight accommodation for up
to 26 homeless adults and a place to gather during the daytime for low-income
functionally disabled residents of downtown Easton.
The Shelter Program
Men and women who have become homeless can make Safe Harbor Easton their
home for a period of up to 60 days while they prepare for their future.
Each resident works with a staff social worker to develop a plan to become
self-sufficient or to find appropriate care. While in the shelter, residents
share in household chores, participate in self-help programs, and address
the problems that led them to seek shelter.
The Day Program
At 10:00 a.m. weekdays, Safe Harbor Easton opens its doors to drop-in
guests who gather to socialize, participate in activities, or seek the
assistance of our staff. Breakfast and lunch are provided, often through
the gifts and assistance of volunteers, and a variety of activities, including
arts and crafts, movies, and Bible study, are organized. Various forms
of counseling and advocacy are provided either by staff members or by
area social agencies. Health screening and representative payee services
are available to program participants.
