A Description of The Haven

The Haven is a 7,100 square foot facility that includes a fully-equipped modern kitchen and dining area, washer/dryer facilities, library and reading room, a group meeting area, office space for staff, family bedrooms, adult male bedrooms and adult female bedrooms.


What is it?

The Haven is the only emergency shelter in Fauquier County. This 52 bed facility can accommodate up to eleven families and eight single adults at any one time. The ground level is 100% accessible to persons with physical disabilities. A trained staff oversees shelter operations on a 24 hour/7 day per week schedule.


What services are provided to residents?

An on-site case manager helps to formulate and facilitate clients' plans for stable housing after their shelter tenure. In-house comprehensive support programs include budget management, various employment-related programs, life-skills classes, nutritional classes, job search services, parenting classes and children's programs. These programs are augmented by other community programs through collaborations established by FFSS with its partners. Referral services to local, state and federal resources are provided to all residents as appropriate.
