General Information:
Lonoke County Safe Haven's mission is to provide hope of healing and independence to victims of domestic violence. We accomplish this mission through our objectives: Provide a safe place to recover from the trauma of domestic violence     Bridge the needs victims have and the services available to meet those needs.     Equip victims of domestic violence with tools to make healthy relationship choices and to live healthy, independent lives     Inform the community about domestic violence and its signs and impact on families and communities.   Help Services 24 Hour Hotline (501)941-HELP (4357) We operate a 24-hour, 365 days a year crisis hotline. Through this hotline, Advocates respond to the needs of community members, whether it is a victim needing safe shelter or just advice. Emergency Shelter We operate a 16 bed emergency shelter for those affected by domestic violence. While the individuals and families are at the shelter, all of their basic needs are met. They also receive one-on-one crisis intervention and case management from advocates as well as counseling from a licensed counselor if they wish. Victim Advocacy Advocates work with victims to help them regain their independence. This takes on many different forms, but often includes assistance with filing legal paperwork, obtaining necessary social services, becoming job ready and looking for jobs, other life skills, and medical advocacy. LCSH also has volunteers and contacts that are Court Advocates to be present at Lonoke County's domestic court twice a month, to be a support to victims during proceedings. Support Groups We offer support groups to both women and children who are staying in the shelter, as well as women from the community that have experienced domestic abuse and would benefit from meeting with other women. The goal of these support groups is to teach the participants dynamics of domestic violence, tools for staying safe in a relationship, how to regain self-esteem, and emotional intelligence.
