Responding to the critical need for safety, Rose Haven welcomes women off the street and with deep respect addresses each ones' expressed needs by offering life sustaining services and assistance in obtaining them. The staff and volunteers have a passionate commitment to the empowerment, integration and self-sufficiency of the women they serve. Rose Haven program serves women and children of all ages. Women come with a myriad of needs and are immediately triaged. They receive practical assistance with basic needs, including: nutrition, hygiene, clothing, a mailing address and voice mail. Referral and advocacy services to housing, legal aid, medical and mental health care are available. The staff assists women in navigating the social service maze, getting restraining orders and accessing services provided by other agencies and programs. By partnering with local community agencies and universities, Rose Haven is able to provide on site medical treatment, a domestic violence specialist, assistance in dealing with chemical dependency, legal assistance, etc. Rose Haven collaborates with many agencies, programs, church groups and organizations in order to address the needs of the women and children. Today we are serving over a hundred women each week and that number increases every month. Rose Haven is an independent, non-profit organization and has received awards from our county, city, region, church and service organizations for its excellent service to women and children in Portland.
