Haven House provides emergency housing and support services for one and two-parent families with children. The shelter helps families who are homeless prepare for permanent housing by developing and promoting self-sufficiency, stability, and financial responsibility.
Residents receive housing, meals, crisis counseling, assistance with goal setting and referrals to other agencies as needed. Haven House staff members work with former residents to set realistic goals and monitor progress in employment, budgeting, and help connecting with the neighborhood and the community.
Haven House has provided temporary shelter for homeless families since 1983. Over the years, the scope of our programs and services has increased dramatically. Not only do we support our residents with basic needs such as shelter, food, clothing, and personal needs items, but we have developed programs that will make an impact on the lives of our families after they have left our shelter.
Giving our residents the opportunity to improve their lives through goal setting, training, and education enables them to become more productive and less apt to become homeless in the future.
