High Plains Children’s Haven
Emergency Services

Established in 2019, High Plains Children’s Haven is a 24-hour emergency shelter service of High Plains Children’s Home that provides immediate housing for up to 16 children at a time who are just entering the CPS system, many times at a moment’s notice.

The Haven provides kids a safe, welcoming and natural home environment during what is a very frightening and uncertain time in their lives. Haven staff is active 24 hours a day and assists with everything from welcoming new arrivals to distributing clothing and personal hygiene items to providing home cooked meals, and much more.

Children placed at the Haven may remain in our care for up to 90 days before receiving more permanent placement in either one of our own cottages at High Plains Children’s Home or within other children’s homes in the state.

Most children arriving at the Haven have very little extra clothing or personal belongings so we are in constant need of help from people like you to provide these children with the necessities to make their stay with us a comfortable one.
