assets.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"isselectedend\" style=\"margin-left: 12.3pt;\"><span style=\"color: black;\">As a child, Diana grew up watching her parents open their home to children in the village who needed food, safety, and care. If a child did not have a meal, they knew they could find a hot plate and a welcoming place in Diana\u2019s family home. She remembers seeing boys and girls sitting in the living room, many of whom she barely knew. Her parents would reassure her that they would go home soon, but many stayed much longer than expected and some never left.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"isselectedend\" style=\"margin-left: 12.3pt;\"><span style=\"color: black;\">Years later, many of those same young men and women shared how Diana\u2019s parents\u2019 home protected them from violence, sexual abuse, hunger, and hopelessness. For many, that home became a safe place that gave them a chance to become something more in life.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"isselectedend\" style=\"margin-left: 12.3pt;\"><span style=\"color: black;\">After moving to the United States, Diana found herself continuing that same legacy. She began helping young people who had nowhere to go, offering a place to shower, eat, rest, and feel safe. What started with helping one youth soon grew into a home filled with more than 20 young people, many coming in and out daily for meals, support, and shelter. At times, Diana did not even know all of their names, but she knew they needed care, and she responded.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"isselectedend\" style=\"margin-left: 12.3pt;\"><span style=\"color: black;\">As Diana continued serving in this mission, she met her husband, who was also a former foster youth. Through his own experience, he shared the painful realities of aging out of foster care without stable support, guidance, or a safe place to land. His story deepened Diana\u2019s understanding of what young people face when they are expected to figure out adulthood alone.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"margin-left: 12.3pt;\"><span style=\"color: black;\">Today, Diana and her husband are united in their commitment to make sure youth aging out of care are not left to navigate life by themselves. Through Diana Harbor &amp; Haven Foundation, they are building on a legacy of love, safety, and open doors \u2014 creating a true harbor and haven where young people can find stability, hope, guidance, and the support they need to rebuild their lives.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-55b2f30 elementor-widget__width-auto elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"55b2f30\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/form.jotform.com\/261846064481057\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Apply Here Now<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a0fb3d3 e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-column-slider-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a0fb3d3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9398b45 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9398b45\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Meet Our Team<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2076c0f e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-column-slider-no wpr-equal-height-no elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2076c0f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f75a13a e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-column-slider-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f75a13a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c963f9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5c963f9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"488\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/dianahhfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-11-012402.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-202\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dianahhfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-11-012402.png 488w, https:\/\/dianahhfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-11-012402-241x300.png 241w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 488px) 100vw, 488px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b3fcddd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b3fcddd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Diana Robinson\nFounder &amp; Executive Director\nDiana Harbor &amp; Haven Foundation<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e797ef7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e797ef7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Diana Robinson is the Founder and Executive Director of Diana Harbor &amp; Haven Foundation,<\/strong><\/span> where she leads initiatives that provide safe housing, stabilization services, and pathways to independence for returning citizens, youth aging out of foster care, seniors, adults with disabilities, and individuals experiencing housing instability throughout Philadelphia and Delaware County.<br \/>With a strong background in executive leadership and business strategy, Diana combines corporate expertise with a passion for community impact.

Founder\u2019s Story Diana Robinson\u2019s personal connection to this mission is not just part of her background \u2014 it is one of her greatest assets. As a child, Diana grew up watching her parents open their home to children in the village who needed food, safety, and care. If a child did not have a meal, they knew they could find a hot plate and a welcoming place in Diana\u2019s family home. She remembers seeing boys and girls sitting in the living room, many of whom she barely knew. Her parents would reassure her that they would go home soon, but many stayed much longer than expected and some never left.\u00a0 Years later, many of those same young men and women shared how Diana\u2019s parents\u2019 home protected them from violence, sexual abuse, hunger, and hopelessness. For many, that home became a safe place that gave them a chance to become something more in life. After moving to the United States, Diana found herself continuing that same legacy. She began helping young people who had nowhere to go, offering a place to shower, eat, rest, and feel safe. What started with helping one youth soon grew into a home filled with more than 20 young people, many coming in and out daily for meals, support, and shelter. At times, Diana did not even know all of their names, but she knew they needed care, and she responded. As Diana continued serving in this mission, she met her husband, who was also a former foster youth. Through his own experience, he shared the painful realities of aging out of foster care without stable support, guidance, or a safe place to land. His story deepened Diana\u2019s understanding of what young people face when they are expected to figure out adulthood alone. Today, Diana and her husband are united in their commitment to make sure youth aging out of care are not left to navigate life by themselves. Through Diana Harbor &amp; Haven Foundation, they are building on a legacy of love, safety, and open doors \u2014 creating a true harbor and haven where young people can find stability, hope, guidance, and the support they need to rebuild their lives.
