OUR STORY
Harmony will be a place where individuals with different abilities, their families, and friends find a community with the goal for each person to reach their highest, God-given potential.
Right now, there are 2,490 individuals in South Carolina with intellectual disabilities who are being cared for by a parent 65 or older. Simply, there are not enough places for these adult children with special needs to be housed once their parents pass away.
​
So we are building a community where parents would live in their own home and, when needed, take advantage of a full step-down retirement facility and a full nursing care facility. Our children would live in their own "younger home" on campus with younger staff, enjoying independence with supports as necessary.
​
​This community would create a wealth of job opportunities and micro-businesses such as a working farm, small motor repair, food services, housekeeping, shadowing, yard care, and personal care needs.​
​
For the past 11 years, we have prayed and asked God for clarity and what He might want. Along with the Harmony Board, we have begun to gather like-minded people to brainstorm about the future of Harmony Christian Community. Together, we will create a self-sustaining community where all are valued and all have a future.
