At Our Haven, we provide more than just programs—we offer H.O.P.E.:
Health, Opportunity, Pathways, and Empowerment.
Our Haven for Vets is a dedicated program offering mentorship and comprehensive support to the families of service members. We also provide specialized programs for children whose lives have been profoundly affected by veterans living with PTSD, particularly in households facing substance abuse or domestic violence.
Our services are thoughtfully designed to help women, youth, and families rise above unsafe environments and build brighter, more stable futures. Taking a holistic, community centred approach, we focus on healing, education, housing, and personal growth—empowering individuals and families alike. Every service we offer is rooted in compassion and aimed at creating lasting, positive change, so those we support can thrive today and lead with confidence tomorrow.
