OVERVIEW     ► Lost Harbor Institute is a non-profit organization that provides an alternative program that is a refuge of safety where the individual can focus on issues and growth. ► A similar program roots came from a very successful experiment aboard an Oceanographic Research Lab.  Through a combined effort with a juvenile judge; several troubled youths were sent to sea aboard the Lab’s research ship to work on projects.  The positive changes that occurred with these youth while at sea brought about the idea of a permanent Marine based youth program.  Permanent programs with this concept in many coastal areas have been very successful with some reaching a recidivism rate of 12.8%. ► Lost Harbor Institute is adopting this very successful program to the upper mid-west.  We will be utilizing a 3-step process focusing on the individuals needs with our commitment to making a difference.  We are developing alliances with other organizations and businesses that share our goals and values.  We are creating an environment that will create efficiencies, yet increase quality to benefit the youths we serve.  We will strive to be the best in Quality, Value, Accountability, and Service in each of the areas we serve.  Our primary goal is to develop youth, adjudicated as delinquent or in need of service, into responsible and productive citizens. ► For more information on these 3 steps Click below.       - Lost Harbor House - Lost Harbor Institute - Safe Passage Society
