  • About Us

    Across the country, countless individuals experience sexual violence resulting in hospitalization. And after so many hours of being subjected to an intrusive sexual assault examination, victims are often discharged from the hospital wearing uniform scrubs or hospital gowns due to their clothing being collected for evidence. 

    Although a much needed step in the investigative process, this treatment is very cold and inhumane to a person who's just experienced sexual violence.  

    The mission of Haven Box is to provide that human element of comfort that is so often missed or overlooked after a victim has gone through this process. Haven Boxes provide comfort items to survivors during the first few days/weeks after their experience.
