Child Haven is a member of Arizona’s Children Association Family of Agencies operating in Prescott, Arizona. Child Haven provides free crisis nursery care for young children and their families in Yavapai County. Designed to prevent potential child abuse and neglect, it provides a temporary safe haven for young children living with families in crisis.

Child Haven provides for the care of children in the homes of volunteer licensed host families. These families can care for children from birth to six years of age, as well as older siblings. The typical stay is from one to three days, and arrangements can be made for extended stays on a case by case basis. Child Haven can also assist with referrals for education, housing, employment, counseling and clothing.

In Arizona, the home remains the most dangerous place for a child. Life circumstances sometimes overwhelm parents, and stress erupts into abuse. Child Haven is a place and a program that parents can go before they become overwhelmed, and before the abuse begins.
