Safe Haven Ministries' Vision & Values

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.
