A Safe, Confidential Space for Survivors

Safe Haven provides a safe, culturally respectful environment for survivors of sexual assault, violence, and Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples-related trauma. Every participant is treated with dignity, compassion, and respect.

During these sessions, survivors can share their experiences, build strength through community, and access resources that support healing and recovery.

Our goal is to ensure that every survivor knows they are heard, believed, and supported.

Your Path to Healing

Participants in Safe Haven receive:

  • Confidential peer-to-peer support groups.
  • Survivor-led healing discussions.
  • Emotional support and advocacy services.
  • Referrals to medical, legal, and counseling resources.
  • Culturally grounded, trauma-informed care.
  • Connection to the Dot Lake Village Sexual Assault Response Team (SART).
