Protected Harbor is a non-profit organization, headquartered in Lakeland and Fort Myers Florida, whose sole purpose is to provide Group Homes for Developmentally Disabled Adults.
These homes will provide the quality of care each resident deserves. Activities will be available each day and occupational skills will be taught to the residents. Some of the residents will have regular jobs and will earn a wage. Every resident will be helped and encouraged to reach their full potential in life.
Protected Harbor began as the vision of Athena and George Pappas in January 2002 ,to provide an assisted living home close to them for Cleo, their developmentally disabled daughter. Athena and George started a Special Education Ministry in their church in January 2000. There they met Monika and Robert Newman in the summer of 2001.
Monika has a dream of one day building a recreation ranch for developmentally disabled individuals of all ages. As Athena shared her vision with Monika, they both realized they had been brought together for a purpose.
The prayers that followed led to the beginnings of Protected Harbor.

Full time residential care.

Internet marketing is a business imperative because the Internet is an irrevocable and unstoppable trend. Even if you have a traditional "brick-and-mortar" business, you'll lose valuable customers without an online presence. People routinely search for goods and services with their computers in lieu of the yellow pages. If your business isn't on the Web, customers will likely choose another company with whom to do business.
More and more small businesses find it essential to market their products and services online. Customers are increasingly turning to the Web to research companies, compare product features and prices, and to purchase online. A company that does not take advantage of the Web and email to market their business can lose valuable customers.
It has never been easier or more cost-effective to market online. There are numerous Web sites, consultants, software packages, and other tools to help you implement a successful online presence.
