At Safe Haven Ministries, we work to prevent and end relationship abuse and human trafficking. Our work of serving and caring for individuals and communities has healing, wholeness, and flourishing (shalom) at its center. Our dedication to shalom brings together individuals and organizations with very different worldviews to a united mission of preventing and ending relationship abuse and human trafficking.
Experience case studies, best practice demonstrations, and guided application for your own community from Safe Haven Ministries’ practitioners. We intend that our stories of practice will inspire and suggest possibilities for CCDA practitioners who join the conversation.
In Luke 13, Jesus asked, “What shall I compare the kingdom of God to? It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds of flour until it worked all through the dough.” (v20-21) Join us in learning as we seek to work the yeast of violence prevention through our communities, to see them safe and flourishing.
