Safe Harbor, Inc.

Safe Harbor Mission Statement:
  • To provide temporary safe shelter for victims of family violence and their children.
  • To train and educate the general public, parents and children and professionals who deal with victims and perpetrators of domestic violence.
  • To coordinate a sustained effort to alleviate the escalating and devastating problem of family violence in our communities.

Safe Harbor also educates teenagers about the danger signs of a controlling abusive relationship through the Megan Project.  Why?  Over half the women who seek help in a shelter have been in abusive relationships as teenagers.  The Megan Project is taught in every high school in the four county region of Greenville, Anderson, Oconee and Pickens.  To learn more about the Megan Project or the services offered at Safe Harbor, please visit our website at http://www.safeharborsc.org

In 2007, Safe Harbor II in Anderson and Safe Harbor I in Greenville housed 603 women and children who are victims of family violence.  Your participation in the Cycle Tour helps make this possible.

Thank You!
