Haven is dedicated to nurturing & supporting adoptive families across California.
With a focus on high fidelity wraparound services and personalized care, our program is tailored to meet the unique needs of every family, fostering resilience, connection, and growth.
Connecting the world's compassionate human nature to the current science-based understanding of how a trauma impacts a loss of hope, limits our ability to live with joy, and creates a fear of living in the world. Thus prompting us to have a deeper and more compassionate understanding with all humanity.

Case Study #1
Family Background
Dawn, a single mother of four, was struggling with the challenges of parenting. She had previously been part of a different Wrap program but found their inconsistencies stressful. Feeling overwhelmed, she contemplated handling things on her own until she came across Haven at a conference.
Engagement & Experience
Dawn engaged with Haven for six months, receiving therapy, coaching support, and other ancillary services. She embraced coaching to become a calmer parent and built stronger relationships with her children. While initially apprehensive, Dawn's commitment to her family's well-being was evident from the start.
Haven’s involvement has been profound. Dawn no longer feels constant depression or hopelessness. She has learned to see beyond her children's behavior, understand their struggles, and build meaningful connections with each of them.
Benefits & Transformation
Through Haven, Dawn and her family have undergone a remarkable transformation. With the program's support, Dawn has become a more effective and empathetic parent, and her children have flourished. Their outings, once chaotic, are now enjoyable experiences for everyone. Dawn recently received a heartwarming compliment from a waitress, praising her children's politeness and behavior. Haven's holistic approach has not only improved their daily lives but also strengthened their bond as a family.
“We are now a family working together, a masterpiece in progress. As a parent, I am no longer in constant states of depression, anger, or hopelessness. EOH is helping me to find windows of opportunity to build stronger relationships with my child.” - Dawn B.
Case Study #2
Family Background
This family's journey with Haven Wraparound Services began when they were referred by their Social Worker at the county AAP Office after a severe injury caused by their child. Frustrated with other agencies' delays and lack of responsiveness, they turned to Haven for help.
Engagement & Experience
Facing a challenging situation with their child's suicide attempts and aggressive behavior, the family sought residential placement. Haven's prompt and comprehensive support stood out, offering an array of services including family coaches, financial assistance, training, and therapy.
The family found Haven's approach refreshingly different, emphasizing action over bureaucracy. This shift in focus enabled them to access the services and resources they desperately needed.
Benefits & Transformation
Since engaging with Haven, the family has experienced significant improvements. They have learned better communication skills and coping mechanisms. The child is better at expressing her feelings, and the parent has become more resilient to challenging behavior.
Haven's commitment to prompt, effective, and compassionate care has made a profound difference in their lives, demonstrating the power of wraparound services in transforming families and fostering resilience.
“Because of EOH, we have learned better communication skills, and my daughter is better at communicating her feelings and needs. Through therapy, I am beginning to be able to not let her behavior affect me.” - Kerri R.
