The best place ever. Supportive people. Very home, and welcoming with lots of great experiences. I can say. Most of the girls there are trauma experienced sad, hurt. Everyone has their own experiences for the most. I didn’t like my room as at night the girl across from my bunk bed would put music on when we tried to sleep. The other woman, would wrap her marijuana in the room (I kind of found that odd really) I told the staff. One girl was laughing and she got up and did some weird stuff and the other lady got up and was disrupted and upset. These experiences are very scary. Make sure your in a safe place.

I lived at street haven in 2015 to 2016. I felt safe and cared about while living there. After almost a year I got into transitional housing at Fred Victor. Being persistent I asked Bobbie to help me find a place, and she did. I paid market rent for a few years and then was accepted into street haven housing. Being non binary as I transitioned into housing was accepted and I have lived contently in the housing program for a few years. Since then I have grown into my own and started recently working again after not working for almost 10 years because of mental health. The shelter had to in a sense throw me into the water so I could swim on my own again which at first felt uncomfortable but now I understand why, they saw I was more capable and I needed space from relying on workers so I could make a life for myself outside the shelter environment. We agreed, we disagreed on things but I can honestly say they did what was best for me and my goals. Now I have been setting my sights higher and Bobbie has been solid through the whole experience. Expect to get tough love from the staff as it will only help you in the end. The shelter is a starting point not the only point. Thank you too everyone who helped on this journey of mine , and cudos to the workers , and the people behind the scenes to offer support to people getting back on their feet.

Standing up for rights is looked at as aggressive behavior. Slandered my name to another client and breached my confidential information. Human rights file case pending. I always recommend this shelter to woman in need and got nothing but the worst. Proof to back up my word.
