The Haven provides community services and shelter services to those struggling to make ends meet.

Community Services

The Food Shelf

Families and individuals in need of food can visit the Haven’s Food Shelf once a month for a week’s supply of groceries (including dairy, fresh produce and meant) and as often as needed for bread and frech produce.  During a Food Shelf visit, families “shop” the shelf, selecting from a wide range of non-perishable items, meat, dairy and fresh produce. Learn more…

The Clothing Room

The Haven organizes the many donations of clothing it receives and makes them available to anyone in need. A variety of clothing, including shoes, is available for women, men and children with the selection changing to meet the current season. Learn more…

Case Management

Many people come through our doors in need of more than food, clothing and/or a shower. Our Outreach Case Managers addresses this population by assisting with short-term development of solutions and referrals to other organizations for longer term help. Learn more…
