Haven House Haven House provides emergency housing and support services for families with children. The shelter helps families who are homeless prepare for permanent housing by developing and promoting self-sufficiency, stability and financial responsibility. In addition to housing, residents receive meals, crisis counseling, assistance with goal setting and referrals to other agencies as needed. For every $1,000 donated, Haven House is able to provide housing and services to one family. Homelessness in childhood is a trauma that is considered an Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE). ACE’s have proven to have negative effects on children throughout their lives in important areas like life expectancy, employment, education, addiction, poverty and crime. Haven House provides a self-healing community that keeps families together and reduces trauma for children, a cause important to Cinnaire’s mission.
