Springhaven, Inc.

Springhaven, Inc. is a registered, tax-exempt corporate entity and non-profit organization based in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, specializing in domestic violence support services. Established before 2005 and currently registered in SAM.gov until February 2026, the organization serves the Lincoln Trail Area Development District, including 8 counties and the Fort Knox Army Base. As a domestic shelter, Springhaven, Inc. focuses on providing comprehensive support to survivors of domestic violence, with a particular emphasis on serving historically underserved, marginalized, and disproportionately impacted communities.

Through federal grant awards, Springhaven, Inc. has consistently received funding from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs, specifically the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC). The organization's primary grant-funded activities include providing culturally responsive victim services such as emergency shelter, legal advocacy, counseling, support groups, housing assistance, economic empowerment, and critical support services like food, clothing, transportation, and childcare. Recent grant awards, including a $200,000 Project Grant (CFDA 16.582) effective October 2024, have enabled the organization to enhance direct victim services for diverse populations, particularly Hispanic and African American/Black communities. The majority of sub-grant awards have been received from the Kentucky Justice & Public Safety Cabinet, with project descriptions consistently highlighting crisis intervention, court advocacy, community engagement, individual and group counseling, and comprehensive support for domestic violence survivors across various community settings, including family courts, college campuses, and emergency shelters.
