2025 Goals:
Harbor Care is committed to breaking the cycle of homelessness through housing, health care and veteran services. Each year, nine out of 10 individuals we place in permanent housing with wraparound support do not return to homelessness. In 2025, our three key priorities are:
- Ending veteran homelessness in Manchester
- Reducing chronic homelessness in Greater Nashua
- Providing substance use treatment and recovery to our most vulnerable, including mothers and children.
Fundraising Events:
Thanksgiving Community Dinner: For 20 years, Harbor Care has welcomed thousands of our most vulnerable community members to celebrate Thanksgiving, enjoy a great meal and have fellowship together. It is held the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, and this is much more than just a meal for the more than 300 individuals and families who attend each year. For many, it’s the moment a door opens, and they find the help they desperately need.
NH Veteran Stand Down: An important resource expo for veterans in need of assistance. Hosted by Harbor Care in partnership with the VA, and dozens of community service providers, where veterans can access assistance on many different needs, all in one location. This includes housing, food, medical care, pension claims, employment, finances and more.
