We are in the GIVE!GUIDE

Our Vision: A community where everyone has safety, stability, love, health and home.

Bottom Line

Rose Haven is the only day shelter in downtown Portland dedicated to women, children, and people marginalized by their gender. Serving 120-150 guests a day, we address not only immediate needs for food, hygiene and shelter, but also meaningful resources for guests to address their long-term goals of housing, health, and stability.

Quote

“You know, when I come in here, I don’t feel homeless. You treat me like a real person. You guys are consistently so nice. I’ve been treated better here than anywhere else. It really means a lot.” – Rose Haven guest
