Mission
Haven’s House Academy will provide an educational environment that provides comprehensive and holistic support for young adults who are homeless or at risk and need socio-emotional, academic and vocational supports while creating critical thinkers that are able to advocate for their needs.
Vision
Our vision is to create socially responsible leaders who are energized advocates.
Our Model
Our education model aims to meet the needs of all of our students by providing wraparound services that foster growth, empathy and understanding.
