Haven House serves a population that has been "invisible" for a long time. The women and children who escape to the safety of the shelter are, effectively, homeless and would literally be on the street were it not for Haven House. A vital service Haven House offers its client-families is assistance with finding permanent housing through the services of a Transitional Housing Specialist.
