About Rise Haven
A haven for women rebuilding their lives
Rise Haven Women's Foundation is a Georgia nonprofit serving women and families affected by domestic violence with housing assistance, advocacy, education, and community care.
Our Mission
To empower women affected by domestic violence by providing support, resources, housing assistance, and opportunities for rebuilding independent lives — without cost and without judgment.
Our Vision
A Georgia where every woman has a safe place to sleep, a community that believes her, and a clear path toward lasting independence.
Core Values
Four commitments shape how we serve every woman who reaches out.
Dignity Always
Women are met with respect, never judgment, at every stage.
Community
Healing happens in relationship, not in isolation.
Empowerment
We build capability, not dependency — independence is the goal.
Our Story
Rise Haven began the way most community work does — with women helping women. What started as informal support, a spare room, a ride to court, and a shared grocery run grew into a foundation built to meet the same needs with consistency.
Today we operate out of Peachtree Corners, Georgia, serving Gwinnett County and metro Atlanta. Our approach hasn't changed: listen first, remove barriers quickly, and stay present long after the crisis passes.
Who We Serve
- Women leaving or recovering from abusive relationships
- Mothers and children needing safe, stable housing
- Women facing housing instability after a crisis
- Survivors rebuilding financial and career independence
