Safe Haven Transitional Housing

The Safe Havens are transitional housing residences serving mentally ill, chronically homeless single adults in the metro San Diego area. In addition to providing a safe home, the program also offers intensive case management for 18 months, during which time the residents are assisted with securing a stable income, obtaining permanent housing and gaining valuable life skills. Emphasis is placed on supportive, communal living in an alcohol and drug-free environment. While residing at the Safe Havens residents also benefit from employment counseling, educational guidance, disability income enrollment assistance, developing and sustaining a plan to manage mental health issues and chaplaincy services. In addition, residents enjoy three meals per day, every day of the year prepared by ECS’ Food Services.

Uptown Safe Haven is located in the Hillcrest neighborhood in San Diego. Uptown Safe Haven accommodates up to 19 single adults. Downtown Safe Haven is located near San Diego City College and accommodates up to 28 single adults.
