Recovery isn’t something we study, it’s something we practice.

Real life is the laboratory. Our own hearts are the workshop.

We learn by showing up, choosing love, and doing the next right thing.

This is how healing happens, one day at a time.

If you’re sober this Christmas, we’re proud of you.

You’re doing the deal.

One day at a time.

Keeping your sobriety first, because everything else depends on it.

Sobriety is a gift, the kind that lets you get on the floor with kids, play with the dog, laugh too loud, and actually remember it all.

Turns out, this is what happiness looks like.

Christmas Cookie Swap at Haven 🎄🍪

One of our favorite traditions of the year.

Alumni come back home to Haven, and our current residents spend the day in the kitchen with Chef Colleen, baking cookies from scratch, learning, laughing, and working side by side.

By the end of the day, the tables are full, the kitchen smells like Christmas.

At the end of the day, we do a cookie swap, and we vote on the best! Friendly competition (mostly 😂)

Everyone leaves with boxes of cookies and full hearts, a beautiful mix of past and present, recovery and tradition, service and joy.

This is what community looks like.

(We can’t share photos of the women for privacy… but the cookies didn’t mind being photographed 😉)

Recovery starts long before the coffee, it starts with surrender. With choosing God’s voice over the old noise.

Because left to our own thinking, most of us end up back in fear, shame, or self-reliance. But when we let God in first, the whole day shifts.

This is what we practice at Haven: humility, willingness, and the quiet courage to start our day with God instead of ourselves.

Art helps. Music helps. Animals help. People help.
When we stay grounded in the good, hope finds its way in.
It always does.

Art helps. Music helps. Animals help. People help.

When we stay grounded in the good, hope finds its way in.

It always does.

“All I really need to know, I learned in kindergarten.”

The fundamentals:

• Tell the truth.
• Take responsibility.
• Clean up your mess.
• Be kind.
• Respect others’ space.
• Ask for help when you need it.
• Do the right thing even when no one is watching.

Recovery asks us to return to these simple, foundational principles , because they are the building blocks of healthy adulthood.

At Haven at Blue Creek, we see every day that when women begin practicing these basic truths with consistency and integrity, healing becomes possible.

Lives begin to stabilize.
Families begin to rebuild.
And women rediscover who they were always meant to be.

Identity is shaped by what we believe about ourselves, not by what others project onto us.

In recovery, in relationships, in parenting, in leadership… clarity about who we are protects us from being pulled into roles, expectations, or labels that don’t match our truth.

At Haven, we teach women (and remind ourselves) to pause, reflect, and choose who we are becoming, rather than letting the world decide for us.

We’ll miss our Fall Fundraiser this year, but our mission continues.

Haven has grown more than ever, with 9 treatment beds filled and 12 sober living units now open. With that growth came a huge increase in daily responsibilities, expanding our counseling and support staff, providing transportation, furnishing new housing, and keeping up with rising costs.

Because of that workload, we simply didn’t have the capacity to plan our annual event this year.

Still, so many of you have reached out to give anyway, and we’re deeply grateful.
