One in three Texas women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime, but SafeHaven exists to provide freedom.
SafeHaven is the only state designated family violence center in Tarrant County. We began in 1976 as two agencies: The Women’s Haven in Fort Worth and The Women’s Shelter in Arlington. In 2006, the two agencies merged to become SafeHaven of Tarrant County.
Over our 45+ year history, we’ve never strayed from our mission: to end domestic violence in Tarrant County. Everything we do is with the end goal of providing freedom for survivors of domestic violence.
SafeHaven works to end domestic violence in a two-fold manner:
1. Keep victims safe
2. Hold offenders accountable
We are here to take care of the most vulnerable, to keep them safe, and to serve them wherever they are on their journey to escape domestic violence. Our services aren’t one-size-fits-all - that’s why we provide robust resources from the county’s only domestic violence shelters and transitional housing, to counseling and legal aid. We want to meet survivors where they are.
As part of our lifelong mission, we also feel an obligation to bring change across the board - change the distribution of power in relationships, change where the blame lies, and change how the system responds.
Our Prevention Team works in Tarrant County schools, focusing on preventing and decreasing dating violence and bullying through evidence-based programs, and our Partner Abuse Intervention and Prevention (PAIP) Program works with offenders to cultivate behavior change and take violence off the table in relationships.
We won’t stop until every woman in Tarrant County feels safe in her relationship.
Our programs are designed to prevent child abuse, neglect, and family separation and help heal and treat children already affected by these tragedies. With more than a century of experience working with children, we know that the best way to accomplish our mission is to work with families, whenever possible, to strengthen their ability to care for their children safely.
