Harmony At Home's goal is to receive 50% of our funding from private donations. Support from the private sector will empower us to expand our programs that lead to "Ending Violence and Building Families.". That is what Harmony at Home is about, because children function better when there is harmony at home.
What we have accomplished so far:
- 3,500 children have received counseling under the Sticks & Stones® program.
- 1,200 parents and children have taken What About The Children Program.
- Through our Adopt-A-School program and local foundations, we are providing 11 schools in the Alisal Union School District with Sticks & Stones® . Our goal is to increase the hours Sticks & Stones® will be available by the end of the 2006-2007 school year.
According to our reports for the end of a 10-week counseling program, 80% of the children completing the program are functioning in healthier ways. Graduates from our program learn valuable communication skills that make a difference in the life of families and children:
- Teachers and Principals report that their student's self-esteem has improved, which translates into academic success.
- Children are demonstrating healthy and non-violent conflict-resolution skills with peers.
- Family functioning improves as a result of the support the children and family are receive..
85% of every dollar you donate goes directly to Harmony at Home programs. The remainder covers our administrative costs.

Every donation makes a difference in improving the life of a child that is impacted by violence and trauma.

This furthers Harmony At Home's mission by breaking dysfunctional family patterns and promoting healthier family systems, now and in the future.
