Use Your Voice To Change the Culture
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month 
Every 98 seconds, someone in our country is sexually assaulted. Right here, in our neighborhoods, 1 in 5 will be a victim of sexual assault.
In honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, HAVEN will be hosting a series workshops for service providers of all types throughout Oakland County. All are welcome to attend! To help us keep our building safe, please RSVP for each session you plan to attend:
  • Self-Care Practices for Survivors and Providers - April 11, 2017, 12 - 2 pm
     
  • Supporting Immigrant Survivors of Sexual Assault - April 18, 2017, 2:30 - 4:30 pm 

  • Understanding Sexual Assault in LGBTQ+ Communities - April 25, 2017, 12 - 2 pm
March for Consent 
Join us in taking a stand against rape culture and make your voice heard on April 29th. We will march for consent. We will march in solidarity with survivors.
All are welcome. Please wear teal, the official color of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The first 50 people to arrive will receive a t-shirt. Click here for more information.

2016 HAVEN Annual Report 

It may feel like we have a long road ahead before we can completely eliminate gender-based violence in our community and our world. With you by our side, HAVEN will lead the way. Come with us. We’re not going to stop until we create a world of safe, equal, and accountable communities where sexual assault and domestic violence do not exist.
