Who We Are
At Wind Haven, we’re more than advocates—we’re a sanctuary of healing, clarity, and restoration. We’re a grassroots, family-run nonprofit helping survivors of abuse break free from toxic cycles and build safe, healthy communities—by addressing not only interpersonal abuse but the systemic oppression embedded in unsafe housing, unjust policies, and economic hardship.
Domestic violence is rarely just bruises and broken bones. Financial abuse, housing instability, and homelessness can keep survivors trapped long after escaping an abuser. That’s why our mission has grown—from educational resources for abuse recovery to pioneering holistic solutions in housing, financial independence, and trauma-informed care.
Our Mission
Wind Haven exists to provide refuge, recovery, and renewal for individuals and families overcoming domestic abuse in all its forms. Through survivor-led, trauma-informed initiatives—both virtual and local—we guide Overcomers on a transformational journey: recognizing abuse, reclaiming identity, and rebuilding lives with faith, safety, and purpose.
We are redefining recovery by tackling the roots that keep people stuck. Our nonprofit housing stewardship model replaces unsafe, exploitative systems with communities built on health, safety, and dignity. Combined with our virtual Overcomer Reforge program and the OIDR Healing Trinity, we empower survivors to transform cycles of abuse into legacies of healing, justice, and leadership.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every survivor can break free from abuse and step boldly into healing, and where Wind Haven partners with communities, businesses, and ministries to revitalize neighborhoods and create safe, thriving environments for all. By blending trauma-informed care with holistic practices, we aim to multiply our impact across the country—one survivor, one neighborhood, and one community at a time—proving that transformation is possible when we rise together as one body.
Our Values
Aligned with the OIDR method, our values guide everything we do:
Growing People Bloom (Observe) – Healing starts with seeing clearly. Awareness and truth awaken the foundation for transformation.
Healed People Inspire (Identify) – Confronting past wounds brings clarity and purpose. Our growth becomes a testimony that ignites hope.
Radiant Hearts Connect (Dispute) – Connection strengthens restoration. Breaking isolation and challenging falsehoods fosters trust, love, and unity.
Cultivated Community (Replace) – Wholeness is more than survival—it’s creating something new. Restoration shapes communities of safety, purpose, and abundance.
Inspired by Psalm 147:3, we empower survivors to reclaim peace, security, and joy—whether rebuilding tangible lives or mending broken spirits. At Wind Haven, our mission, vision, and values aren’t just words—they’re a promise: to break cycles, ignite hope, and cultivate a future where every heart can truly bloom.
