✨ Our Little Haven’s Gala is coming up, and this year’s theme is Night of Possibility. ✨

Possibility isn’t just a word for one night, it’s what your support makes real every day. 💛

Possibility looks like a child learning to regulate emotions.
Possibility looks like a parent feeling supported.
Possibility looks like a foster family finding connection.
Possibility looks like early intervention changing the trajectory of a young life.

This is the work we’ll celebrate at our Gala, and it’s the impact you make possible. 💙

🌱 March brings a season of growth — and at Our Little Haven, growth happens every day. 💙

As we look forward to trees filling with leaves, flowers blooming, and brighter days ahead, we’re reminded that healing also takes time, care, and patience.

Through therapy, early childhood treatment, and family-centered services, we help children build confidence, stability, and hope — one steady step at a time. ✨

đź’› Healing has a ripple effect.

When you support one child, that care reaches their family, their classroom, and their community. A calmer child means a more confident caregiver, a more understanding teacher, and a stronger support system around them.

At Our Little Haven, that ripple starts with care, compassion, and early support for children and families who need it most. Thank you for being part of the wave of healing and hope. 🌊💙

đź’™ At Our Little Haven, we believe family connections matter more than ever.

Through Diligent Ongoing Relative Search (DORS), our Community Family Services team works to identify and engage relatives who can offer connection, support, or even permanency for children in foster care. This work is ongoing, intentional, and deeply relationship-focused.

One of the tools we use is a genogram – a visual map of a child’s family system that helps us see relationships, history, and potential supports across generations.

Together, DORS and genograms help ensure no connection is overlooked and every child has the chance to maintain meaningful family ties whenever possible. This is how we help build stability, belonging, and brighter futures for children and families. đź’«

đź’› At Our Little Haven, healing begins with seeing the whole child and the whole family.

Children don’t exist in isolation – and neither does healing. When we support parents, caregivers, and siblings alongside the child, we help create stability, understanding, and lasting progress for the entire family. 💙

This family-centered approach is at the heart of our work across programs, guiding how we listen, how we care, and how we walk alongside those we serve. Every family’s story is unique, and their care should be too. 🌟

The Cookie Jar Story

Our Little Haven is complicated - the kids and families are overwhelmed, the system is "broke" and often there is no place to get help. OLH invites the community to help through early intervention which is in itself is complicated. So, to help explain the beauty of Our Little Haven here is a simple story. We believe when we’re born, God gives us a Cookie Jar and with each positive experience - each hug, each high-five, each success – we get a cookie in our Cookie Jar. At about ten years old (the ending of our formative years) our Cookie Jar gets sealed up and what we have in our Jar is what nurtures us for the rest of our lives. Now, most of our Cookie Jars are pretty full. The Haven Kids, well, their Jars are empty and it’s our honor to fill them. That’s what the community does – helping to fill Cookie Jars.
