Mission
Safe Haven is permanent supported housing for single, homeless adults with mental illnesses.  Many homeless people are vulnerable, disoriented and fearful, and can be victims of robbery, rape or attack. Many are overwhelmed by the expectations of traditional programs, and lack insight into their mental illness and decline available services and treatment.
