Help Haven House

Haven House

East Lansing, Michigan

Cause Description:
Haven House has provided temporary shelter for Greater Lansing area homeless families since 1983. Over the years, the scope of our programs and services has increased dramatically. Not only do we support our residents with basic needs such as shelter, food, clothing, and personal needs items, but we have developed programs that will positively impact on the lives of our families after they leave our shelter. Haven House provides emergency housing and support services for one-parent and two-parent families with children. We are unique in that we are the only Lansing-area shelter who is able to keep the whole family in tact during this transition. We are unique in that we accept two parent families, families with single dads, and those with teenage sons. In addition to housing, residents receive 3 meals a day, crisis counseling, assistance with goal/budget setting and referral to other local agencies as needed. The shelter helps families who are homeless prepare for permanent housing by developing and promoting self-sufficiency, stability, and financial responsibility.
