Let H denote the class of functions f which are harmonic and univalent in the open unit disc D = {z: |z| < 1}. This paper defines and investigates a family of complex-valued harmonic functions that are orientation preserving and univalent in D and are related to the functions convex of order β(0 ≤β< 1), with respect to symmetric points. We obtain coefficient conditions, growth result, extreme points, convolution and convex combinations for the above harmonic functions.
