Since 1983, Haven House NWI has provided emergency shelter for Domestic Violence victims and their children in Hammond, Indiana.

Our services are FREE and confidential. The first concern at Haven House is to respond to a domestic crisis with safe emergency housing and basic daily necessities for the survivor.

Our goal is to assist with long term solutions for each family by offering resources and referrals to agencies to assist survivors with establishing independent living skills while increasing safety and stability.

I just wanted to show my gratitude and appreciation for all the love you all showed my family during our stay...I was given a lot of resources from housing listings, food pantries, clothes giveaways, and job leads...My experience at Haven House was a great start to my new beginnings.
