Our Vision is to empower individuals overcoming substance use and co-occurring disorders to achieve independence and reintegrate into their families and communities. By supporting those re-entering society from prisons and jails, we aim to transform rural communities and break generational cycles, offering hope for a brighter future.
At Safe Harbor, we believe every individual is created with inherent value and purpose. Guided by faith, compassion, and hope, we are committed to providing personalized care that empowers individuals to overcome substance use and co-occurring disorders.
We recognize that each person’s journey is unique. By meeting individuals where they are, we focus on their strengths, honoring their past while helping them build a future rooted in independence, healing, and restored relationships.
Through holistic, evidence-based practices integrated with spiritual guidance, we create a safe and nurturing environment that fosters transformation. Our goal is to help individuals reconnect with their families, reintegrate into their communities, and break generational cycles of adversity—one step, one day, and one life at a time.
At the heart of our philosophy is the belief that lasting recovery is possible when individuals feel seen, heard, and supported in every aspect of their lives.

Our Mission Statement
A Safe Place to Recover, Worship, and Work
A Safe Place to Recover, Worship, and Work
Safe Harbor is a Co-Occurring Disorder Capable (CODC) program.
What is CODC?
CODC programs address co-occurring mental and substance –related disorders in their policies and procedures, assessment, program content, treatment planning, and discharge planning. Even when the programs are geared primarily toward treating mental health or substance use disorders, program staff address the interaction between mental and substance use disorders, along with their effect on the individual’s readiness to change through individual and group program content. Relapse and recovery environment issues are also addressed (TDMHSAS/DSAS, 2014).

Message from our President
"At Safe Harbor, we consider it a privilege to serve the men and women in our care. These participants have come to us from living in the streets or ex-offenders that needed somewhere to go. We strive to provide them with so much more than food and shelter—we strive to make a lasting difference through group and pastoral counseling, life building classes, and finding them permanent employment which provides stability once they leave our care. Would you consider partnering with us to make a lasting impact?
We appreciate your support and pray that God will bless you as you have blessed! Together we are making a difference!" - Brad S Bowie, President
