What is the mission of your agency? <br />The Mission of HAVEN is to help people heal from abuse as we work to end domestic violence <br />and sexual assault through community education, intervention, and prevention. <br />2. Explain how the programs and services of your agency do one or more of the following: <br />• Complement or enhance a current county service at a reduced cost: <br />HAVEN enhances services provided by the Lee County Sheriff's Office, the Lee County DSS, <br />the local hospital, and many other community agencies by providing safety for victims and <br />survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault that is free to participants. We take referrals <br />24/7 and work to assist appropriate individuals and families to enter our state of the art shelter <br />which opened in 2011. If local agencies had to pay for shelter, meals, counseling, referral, and <br />other services offered by HAVEN, these services would be extremely limited because no one <br />could afford to provide these services. <br />Applications are due to the Lee County Finance Office, PO Box 1968, Sanford, NC 27331 -1968 by <br />5:00 p.m. on Friday, March 21, 2014.
