It means a great deal to me to be part of the Children’s Harbor team. Together, we will be their voice when they need it most.
Nicholas Sproul
Managing Broker | Southwestern Real Estate
Coming from a broken home and being orphaned as a teenager myself, I could see what a difference Children’s Harbor and Brown’s Harbor was making in the lives of these kids. From working my first Guardian Ad Litem case and being assigned to a set of siblings that was placed at Children’s Harbor, I could tell this facility was here to do something most group homes don’t have the ability to do and that’s to keep these kids together when they can only lean on each other. I’m truly honored to be able to serve on this board because it’s a cause that is dear to me and I believe it can make a huge impact.

Children’s Harbor is a beacon of hope for kids who have endured the unfortunate experience of family-related trauma. It’s an opportunity to give them a safe place to call home, as well as the guidance they often need to make sense of life as young adults.
Clara Acero Smith

Growing up in a single-parent household, I can relate to needing guidance and yearning for stability. Children’s Harbor provides that safe place for youth in our community struggling to find a home and is unique as it keeps siblings together. I am honored to be part of a heart-led, impactful organization.
Marleen Applebaum

Each child should have a place to call home – a safe place where they are loved, nurtured, and taught skills to help them succeed in life. For many, Children’s Harbor is that place. I’m honored to part of this incredible organization whose professionals give of themselves every single day and every single hour to help children heal.
Stephanie Parker
President, South Florida Condo – HOA | FirstService Residential
Children’s Harbor is unique in so, so many ways, but most importantly in how the leadership team, dedicated professionals and onsite team members manage to create a home and also a family for young people who may have never experienced that before. I’ve never seen anything like it and I am humbled by the youth, and the team, every single day.
Debra Lage
Senior Principle | Mercer
A child needs a place to feel loved and safe in an environment that provides guidance and the tools to help them continue to grow regardless of the experiences and tragedies they have endured. Children’s Harbor is that place. I am privileged and honored to be part of such an amazing organization.
I chose to serve on this board because of the direct short and long-term impact this incredible organization has on children in the community.
