We Transform Lives
Open Haven is a post-crisis service supporting vulnerable women who have experienced domestic violence as they rebuild their lives and regain independence. Unlike many organisations that focus on immediate crisis care, Open Haven provides long-term, tailored support to help women overcome barriers and thrive in their communities. Our vision is to support vulnerable women so they become self-sufficient, re-established into a community, and finally can come full circle and empower other women who have found themselves in that same situation.
What We Can Do
Open Haven provides a comprehensive range of services to empower women and families who have experienced domestic violence. Through direct, managed, and referral services, we offer tailored support for a safe and thriving future
Direct
Services
Practical, immediate assistance to meet essential needs, including personalised plans, transport, and childcare support, helping survivors with stability and access to resources.
Managed Services
Specialised programs focusing on personal growth, psychological support, and nourishment, designed to empower individuals as they rebuild their lives.
Referral Services
Connections to a network of additional resources, offering support for housing, employment, and mental health to ensure holistic care and guidance.
Open Haven Hubs
Open Haven operates using place-based hubs for female survivors of domestic violence to come together on a weekly basis in their local area. We support survivors who have received crisis intervention, left the unsafe situation, and are looking to rebuild their lives. The hubs utilise a person-centred approach in providing practical, social and wellbeing initiatives, referrals, and activities. Our programs are tailored to meet the individual needs of participants through a range of activities that help participants with employability, literacy, driving lessons and training. The activities assist to reduce isolation and loneliness, create community, and increase wellbeing.

Testimonials
Become a Volunteer
There are many opportunities to volunteer at Open Haven. We’d love to hear from you about your passion, your talents and your skills. Some of our roles require specific training, and those working with children require a Blue Card. However, we have opportunities in the back office as well.
The Importance of Post-Crisis Support
Domestic violence is a pervasive issue that affects individuals, families, and communities worldwide. While immediate crisis intervention is essential in mitigating harm and ensuring the safety of survivors, post-crisis support plays an equally crucial role in the recovery process. After escaping an abusive situation, survivors face a myriad of emotional, psychological, social, and financial challenges that require ongoing assistance.
