share close

An area organization dedicated to supporting victims of domestic violence and their children will be closing at the end of the month.

SpringHaven Inc. published a statement Wednesday that states that they will be closing their domestic violence shelter effective June 30, 2026. The statement cites “the loss of funding and inability to secure sufficient resources to sustain shelter and outreach operations” as the reason for the closure.

The statement reads: “Our immediate priority is ensuring that every resident survivor and their children are transitioned safely and thoughtfully to appropriate housing, services, and support systems. We are working closely with community partners to facilitate individualized transition plans and warm hand-offs to receiving agencies and programs.”

The statement states that Barren River Area Safe Space in Bowling Green, the Center for Women and Families in Louisville, Bethany House in Somerset, and Greenhouse 17 in Lexington are among the partner organizations that are prepared to assist. ZeroV, the state domestic violence coalition, stated in a Facebook post they are working with SpringHaven during the transition and are seeking community partners. A full transitional service plan should be available at www.zerov.org by July 1.

Victims of domestic violence can call 1-800-799-7233 for assistance.
