Vision
Statement
Motivated by Christ’s love,
Safe Haven Ministries provides a place of refuge and support
for abused women and their children. As we envision a world free
from domestic abuse, we will collaborate with others to support
our clients on their journey toward peace, hope and security in
their lives. We will be leaders in the community in education
and in abuse prevention.
Through expanded services and facilities, we will increase our
capacity to help clients in their search for safety and
wholeness. We will empower our clients to build a life free from
abuse through added opportunities in advocacy, counseling,
support groups and educational programming. By continuing our
partnerships with other agencies, we will connect our clients to
a wide range of support services.
As experts on
domestic abuse, especially as it relates to issues of faith, we
will equip the faith community to recognize and respond
appropriately to this problem that does not discriminate
according to age, race, ethnic origin, religion or
socio-economic status. With a goal of preventing the abuse cycle
before it can even begin, we will develop and implement
educational curricula to teach children and young people to
recognize signs of abusive behavior and unhealthy relationships.
We will work toward the elimination of domestic abuse, promoting
knowledge and change, one person at a time
