Introduction

To equip women to break free from destructive habits. To make good decisions. To set realistic goals with a plan to obtain them.
The Organization
SAFE Family Ministries was founded in 2005 with the purpose of providing transitional housing and lifestyle training for women and children of Southwestern Washington. The 16.65 acre location was originally leased to provide these services and has the capacity for up to 70 secure family units, as well as additional facilities for classrooms, training areas, campsites and other ministry opportunities. In 2008, the facility was purchased with God’s providence and the generosity of His people.
Our management team consists of the board of directors who work closely with the executive director. The board of directors are all experts in various fields and provide their expertise to the organization on a pro-bono basis. Ultimately the work will be divided among volunteers and the executive director may need to add counseling staff to support the volunteer team.
