OUR PROGRAM
The residents begin to learn who they are "in Christ" while developing life skills that are essential for their future success. Each resident attends classes on a variety of subjects ranging from Domestic Violence to grocery shopping on a well-managed budget. They WILL face their legal issues, set up payment plans for any fines, medical evaluations, DCS casework, attend recovery meetings through and work volunteer hours; giving back to their community. If residents are allowed, subject to court stipulations, visitation with children in state custody or relative placement is permitted in order to begin the process of healing.
As a resident progresses through each phase of the program, they are taught more responsibilities to build upon the previous lessons learned. These lessons include: obtaining a job, developing a financial budget, obtaining a driver's license, obtaining a car, purchasing vehicle insurance, developing independent living skills under strict supervision, as well as keeping up with phase work and volunteer hours. Additionally, residents will have to work in their scheduled appointments with their children and keep up with any ongoing court cases. When your attention is focused on multiple things, all at one time, it can get stressful. Life at Safe Haven can get tough, but life is always tough in the real world.
This is why it is essential for any resident at Safe Haven to MANAGE their lives and not return to their previous ways of burying their stress and emotions inside their addiction.
Women at Safe Haven will find for the first time in their lives that, with God's help, they CAN do it.
During a resident's time in the program, they will:
Begin the program with a 30 day blackout- during this time there will be no phone calls or visitation.
During the first week or two of the program we will help the resident attain their ID, birth certificate, SS card.
Will also take them for a physical, to the dentist, and glasses if need be. They also will begin working a full time job.
​
AFTER the 30 day blackout a resident will be allowed 2- 20 min phone calls, 2- 4 hour passes per month, and begin paying off fines for drivers licenses.
​
3 months/ 90 day- Allowed a flip phone , 2- 8 hour passes
