Emergency Shelter
for Women & children
Families seeking assistance at our emergency shelter are typically at a crisis stage and require the compassionate care and support of our team.
Sue's Safe Haven Inc provides temporary shelter for women and children who are in need. We offer free lodging for up to 45 days, three meals a day, toiletries and clothing. Our mission is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for those who are in a difficult situation and need a place to stay.
We strive to create an atmosphere of compassion, hope, and acceptance for our guests, and to help them get back on their feet. We are committed to providing a refuge and a sense of security, so that all of our guests have the opportunity to heal and make a fresh start.
A SAFE PLACE
Sue's Safe Haven Inc provides safe housing, nutritionally balanced meals, clothing, hot showers, and a bed.
How to access our Emergency Shelter:
1. The Emergency Shelter phone line is open from 4:30p-8pm M-F. On the weekends, during inclement weather, the Emergency Shelter line is open all day.
2. Call us at (913) 400-2980 ext. 101 at 4:30p -8pm M-F and we will give you instructions on how to access our facility and to learn more about the services we provide.
We offer our services to all women over 17 regardless of race, color, creed, political affiliation, religious affiliation, or sexual orientation.
If you’re under the age of 17, a woman, or have dependent children, we recommend you call 211 from any phone to find shelter and other services. 211 is the United Way’s direct phone line for resources and information. They have expertise and access to a wide range of housing options. If you are a man over the age of 18, without dependent children living with you, they will very likely direct you back to us. But if you are in any other demographic or special needs group, they have numerous options available for you. Call 211.
Guest Options
Our Emergency Shelter provides a safe and supportive environment for individuals and families in need. Guests can stay for up to 30 days, during which time our team of professionals will review each case and determine whether extended stay is appropriate for stabilizing and accessing additional services.
Transfer to Transform provides an opportunity for guests to choose a 12 month transitional program to assist in their transfer from one lifestyle to another. Our program is tailored to each individual's needs and provides the necessary tools and resources to ensure a successful transformation. We are committed to helping our guests develop the skills and confidence to lead successful lives.

We strive to treat each person with respect, dignity, and provide the skills and resources necessary for them to live successfully for themselves and their children.
